A drone photo taken on April 7, 2024 shows the migrating black-necked cranes at the A Rag Wetland in Damxung county of Lhasa, Southwest China's Xizang autonomous region. The black-necked cranes, a species under first-class state protection in China, stop by and forage at the A Rag Wetland in Damxung county during their returning journey to the north every spring.

The wildlife conservators of the county are the busiest during this period. Nyima Dondrup, one of the local wildlife conservators, has been guarding the black-necked cranes at the wetland for 15 years.
