Zhou Shan pulls an osprey with a fish in its mouth out of the water at Daheiting water reservoir in North China's Hebei province, on June 9, 2017. The 54 year old, who learnt how to fish with the birds from age 6, is one of the few fisherman left at the water reservoir with others giving up the practice. "Young people are not willing to engage in the business, I am afraid this traditional fishing method will be lost as I am getting older and older," Zhou said. [Photo/Xinhua] |
