Through a high-powered telescope one can see row upon row of snow-white forms stretching out over the water. Some walk around, others poke their beaks into the water in a leisurely search for food. At the end of the ranks two or three birds splash up water and take a bath. Having finished their bathing, they joust with each other and preen their feathers with their long black beaks.
從高倍的單筒望遠鏡望去，排排雪白身影悠哉佇立在水波中，多數鳥兒扭頭將長長嘴喙埋在背部休息，有些則一邊走動，一邊將長嘴伸入水中，不疾不徐地左右掃動覓食，隊伍盡頭還有三兩隻正展翅潑水洗澡，洗完澡的鳥兒還用長長的黑嘴相互逗弄，為對方梳理羽毛。
