366. Seabird's Gift (10/10)

"I've asked about the satellite computer. This time, there are about 2.2 million birds flying in, which are one of the few super-large short-tailed pisses in recent years. You can earn 220,000 yuan a day." Hamre's expression of your lucky boy.

Qin Shiou was really happy when he heard this. The Canadian government is good and has good protection for fishing owners. According to Shaq's estimate, these birds will be left for a week, which is about 1.5 million yuan in income, which is much more cost-effective than raising fish.

However, the government did not directly transfer the money to the card, but gave him a shopping voucher of equivalent value and asked him to go to the sea aquatic product company to buy fish feed, fish medicine or fish fry, shrimp fry, crab fry, etc.

In short, the Canadian government is also working hard to develop fisheries in order to protect fisheries.

The short-tailed squids are fat and small, and they don’t look amazing. In fact, they are global birds and fly two times a year across the entire earth.

Starting from early May every year, they will gradually wander into the North Pacific Ocean, passing north from the equator through Japan, Ogasawara Islands, California to the east coast of Canada, and then fly all the way to the Arctic.

Therefore, Qin Shiou had not seen them before, because they did not pass through the Atlantic Ocean during the transfer in the first half of the year.

In the second half of the year, in November, they will fly east from Alaska to Newfoundland, then along the west coast of the Atlantic Ocean, all the way to the Hawaiian Islands, where they will spend the cold winter.

The short-tailed squid group is a help to the fishing farm owners and can ask the government for compensation, but their harm to the fishing farm is indeed true, so Shaq later asked if he should find a way to drive away these seabirds in advance.

Qin Shiou shook his head and refused. Migration is the nature of seabirds. Before saying goodbye to the island, these seabirds left here before establishing fishing grounds. Human beings cannot be so domineering. In fact, they occupy the living space of these seabirds, and it is natural for them to eat and rest here.

After hearing his words, Winnie hugged him and smiled sweetly, and she didn't know what to laugh at Qin Shiou.

Not only did they not drive away the short-tailed turtles, Qin Shiou had not deliberately captured them.

Short-tailed squids are a kind of bird with good meat, but because their habitat is either the extreme south or the extreme north, it is difficult to capture. Only when they migrate through a place can people there enjoy their food.

When I learned that the short-tailed pirates arrived at the farewell island, many people from St. Johns came with bird catcher nets with great enthusiasm. The bird flock was too dense and could catch dozens of them in one net. This was the real "strike a roe deer and scoop a fish, and the pheasant flew into the rice pot."

Qin Shiou hated this kind of hunting wild animals, so he and Hamre issued a statement: Private fishing grounds. No entry is allowed.

In this way, if the people of St. Johns want to hunt short-tailed squids, they can only go to public fishing grounds.

However, the town's public fishing grounds gathered many tourists, and the Chinese cameras were filming there. If they hunted the short-tailed squid, it would be embarrassing to go abroad.

I have to say that the Canadians are of good quality, so the group came to take a walk with a bird catch net. Finally, they left in shame with a few birds.

After staying in the fishing ground for six or seven days, in the early morning at the end of November, the group of short-tailed squids set out on the expedition again.

Qin Shiou became the witness. He stood on the dock, and countless sea birds seemed to have suddenly received instructions, spreading their wings and flying from the sea, forming a cloud that was almost invisible to fly towards the south...

The tiger and the leopard stayed on the beach with some melancholy. These days they had a lot of fun with the short-tailed pirates, or they had a lot of fun with the short-tailed pirates, and the birds flew away. That day was boring again.

Seeing the figures of the short-tailed pisses slowly fading away, Qin Shiou's shocked mood did not calm down for a long time. He carefully took a photo and sent it to the space, accompanied by a name: The Greatness of Life.

The seabirds disappeared from the sea level. Qin Shiou slowly walked down the dock. After walking to the beach, he took a look and said, "Damn, there are so many white things, what is this? Is bird shit?"

After watching carefully, Qin Shiou was suddenly happy. These were all bird eggs! There were so many bird eggs!

Yes, there were many gray-white bird eggs scattered on the vast beach. Qin Shiou only found more than a hundred square meters of sand beside him and found twelve bird eggs. If he looked through the entire beach, how much would it take?

After the birds left, Shaq Sea Monster and others brought the boxes to the beach. The group arranged in a line and began to look for bird eggs.

Qin Shiou ran over and asked, "Is this the gift of seabirds you mentioned? Haha, there are so many bird eggs, it's really good."

Shaq smiled and said, "This is just a small gift, boss, and more important gifts behind."

"Don't suck the boss's appetite, tell him the truth." said the sea monster.

Shaq nodded and said, "It's the fishing ground doctor. The excrement of the short-tailed squid attracted the fishing ground doctor. Peter Songyan shrimp, hedgehog shrimp, mantis shrimp and other shrimps have come to our fishing ground."

After listening to Shaq's introduction, Qin Shiou learned that short-tailed squids like to feed on shrimps, but as we all know, shrimps are marine benthic creatures, which means they live on the bottom of the sea.

In this way, it is difficult for short-tailed squids to capture these foods. The long-term evolution has allowed their excrement to contain a mineral phosphorus. These mineral phosphorus is a necessary substance for the growth of shrimp such as Peter Pine, Hedgehog shrimp, mantis shrimp, etc., and they will follow them to forage.

Every place where the short-tailed squid group stops to rest will slowly attract a large number of Peter Pine Rock shrimps, hedgehog shrimps, mantis shrimps and other shrimps, which is a compensation they give to the fishing ground.

Qin Shiou originally wanted to control the consciousness of the sea god to go to the sea to see, but Shaq and others were picking up bird eggs, so he also participated.

The breeding period of short-tailed squids is from the end of September to the beginning of May of the following year. During this period, they will lay eggs. In these seven days, more than two million short-tailed squids laid at least tens of thousands of bird eggs on the beaches of the fishing grounds.

Bird eggs gather in several relatively concentrated places, which is related to the reproductive habits of short-tailed squids. They like to nest in coastal or in caves on islands, and often form large groups to breed together. Therefore, the nests are quite dense, with an average of one nest per square meter.

These bird nests are simple. Female birds use their claws to dig a sand nest and sit inside to lay eggs. If it is a habitat in the Arctic in September, short-tailed squids will spend a month digging holes and then laying eggs.

In addition to leaving so many bird eggs, the short-tailed squid and other unqualified fathers and mothers also left many old birds and small birds that could not keep up with the population.

This is normal for nature. Birds use this method to eliminate unqualified people to promote the evolution of the population.

In the morning, all the birds left, but starting in the evening, many small and old birds flew back one after another.

Looking at these birds, Winnie said with some distress: "They will all die. As long as the cold current comes, they will be frozen to death. Even if they can withstand the cold current, there is no food to supply them in the sea in winter, so they will starve to death." (To be continued)
