你知道上海生活着多少种野生鸟类吗？除了麻雀喜鹊乌鸦，你还能叫出多少种鸟类的名字？

你知道他们的生存现状吗？而人类的活动又对他们产生了什么影响？

观鸟

带着这些疑问，协和三林校区的资深观鸟者 - AS年级的Christine Li同学，在学校升导组的协助下，筹备了一场以“我们身边的鸟类”为主题的专题讲座及观鸟探索活动，并邀请了上海海洋大学-张东升教授作为主讲嘉宾，为鸟类爱好者们，答疑解惑。

上海常见鸟类以及观察方法

Christine Li

作为活动的主策划，Christine率先给同学们分享了一些上海常见鸟类，以“水鸟”“海鸟”“陆鸟”为分类维度进行介绍。值得一提的是，她还现场模仿了珠颈斑鸠 “coo coo”的叫声，惟妙惟肖。

如果说Christine是带我们入门的老师，那么张教授则是从实际探究和研究的层面出发，将我们领入了一个专业鸟类领域。

张教授从生物多样性的理念出发，引入“公民科学”的概念，再从“观鸟”出发，深入“南汇东滩湿地”探究。从研究目的，研究流程，调查方法，分析方法，到调查结果，同学们了解了整个研究流程，也为他们之后的科学研究埋下了一颗种子。

东明公园

在讲座之后，同学们跟着张教授来到了距离三林校区步行距离五分钟的东明公园，展开了一场正式的“观鸟活动”。

那么如何找到鸟呢？首先可以是“听鸟”，循着声音找到鸟的声音再观察；其次，可以往人少的地方走，鸟类不容易被惊到。就这样，我们找到了第一只鸟。

学生感想

Birds Beside Us

从“观鸟者”到“社区科普推动者”

AS Christine Li

人们常常把城市看作一个人工建造的空间，忽视了我们身边的野生动物，然而，大自然的一部分生灵依存于我们城市之间。同时，我们也正在失去与自然的更多联接。事实上，上海南汇，是中国30%鸟类的栖息地，如今它正在受到上海城市化扩建的威胁。

通过组织社区的鸟类保护专家讲座，我希望我们能够了解生物多样性和可持续发展的重要性，为上海的生态保护工作做出贡献。毕竟，学习和理解是重新构建联结的第一步。

我之所以认为观鸟是一项很好的活动，介绍给校园内的同学们。因为这是一个与我们周围大自然重新建立联系的好方法，也是一个重新评估我们在地球上位置的机会。这正是我作为一名观鸟者的感受。

我想我已经被这项活动折服了——这个活动为我突破现阶段鸟类学学习瓶颈提供了方向性指引；并且在日常维度上，帮助我更系统、更专业、更实用地记录鸟类活动信息。

我和张教授就一些与鸟类行为有关的话题进行了简短的交流，比如夜鹭的捕食行为；我们还观察了长尾伯劳捕食嘴嘴鸟的行为。在观鸟的过程中，张教授还向我介绍了南汇的鸟类调查小组。

从现在起，希望能在平时更积极、专注地学习鸟类学，购买一些观鸟设备，扩大观鸟范围，选择更合适的观鸟地点，提出个人观鸟课题，改善以往因设备不足及观测范围和方法的局限性所产生的研究问题。用更科学、更严谨地方式观察鸟类，为今后鸟类生态工程的研究做准备。

我从这次观鸟活动中获益良多，开始注意到周围其实有很多鸟，也学会了如何区分它们的种类。我对鸟更感兴趣了，也意识到保护环境的重要性，希望人类和动物能够和谐共处。

教育的最终目标是赋予我们的学生力量。观鸟活动不仅是进行重大探索的好方法，也是学生发展技能的宝贵机会。通过这次活动，我们见证了Christine的领导潜力、演讲能力和沟通技巧。同时也培养了所以活动参与者类、生物多样性和公民科学的知识。

最后，感谢Christine妈妈，张教授和Christine和Jonathon对本次“观鸟”活动的支持。

Do you know how many kinds of wild birds live in Shanghai? Besides sparrows, magpies, blackbirds, can you name other species of birds?

Do you know their current living situation? And how do human activities affect them?

Withthese questions in mind, the senior bird watcher, Christine Li from AS grade of SUIS Pudong Sanlin Campus organised the "Birds Beside Us" seminar and wildbirds obervation activities, under the guidance of our UGC team. Professor Zhang from Shanghai Ocean University was invited as a special guest for the event.

Birds in Shanghai

Christine Li

As the organiser of the activity, Christine took the lead in sharing some common birds in Shanghai with the students, introducing "Water Birds", "Sea Birds" and "Land Birds" as the classification categories. It is worth mentioning that she also vividly imitated the sound of the Spotted Dove, "coo coo".

If Christine is the guide who introduces us to the world of birds, then Professor Zhanghas broughtus into the next level ofprofessional bird field from the perspective of practical exploration and research.

Starting from the concept of biodiversity, Professor Zhang introduced the concept of "citizen science", and then started from the "bird-watching" to explore the "Nanhui Longtan Wetland".Students gained a thorough understanding of the whole research process: purpose, investigation, methodology, analysis and eventual findings. This hasplanted a seed for their subsequent scientific research.

Bird Watching

Dongming Park

After the lecture, the students followed Professor Zhang to Dongming Park, five minutes" walk from Sanlin Campus, and launched a formal "bird-watching activity".

So how do we find the birds? First, "listening", follow the sound to find the birds and then observing; second, go to place with fewer people, where the birds are less likely to be disturbed. Luckily, we found our first bird of the adventure.

Birds Beside Us

从“观鸟者”到“社区科普推动者”

AS Christine Li

People often regard the city as an artificially constructed space, with which the wildlife beside us has been neglected. However, part of nature still resides in our city, but we are losing the connection to the natural world. Nanhui, a part of Shanghai, is where 30% of bird species arefound in China, and it is now threatened by the urbanisation expansion of Shanghai.

To help our peers to learn the importance of biodiversity and sustainability while contributing to the conservation work in Shanghai, I organised this event. Through the lectures, I could arouse my peers to pay attention to the ecological environment. And through the onsite bird watching at Dongming Park, I could lead my peers to reconnect with the nature around us and enlighten them to re-evaluate our position in the world, which is the best outcome of this activity.

Be moresystematic, professional and practical.

IG2 Chen Chen

I think I have been urged by this activity - a direction to break through the bottleneck period of my current Ornithology learning; In the daily dimension, the signals recorded for birds are more systematic, professional, and practical.

I had a brief exchange with Professor Zhang on some topics related to bird behaviour, such as the predation behaviour of night herons; We also observed the behaviour of a Long-tailed shrike preying on Vinous-throated parrotbill.Professor Zhang introduced me to the group of bird surveys in Nanhui.

From now on, I hope that I can study Ornithology more actively and attentively on ordinary days, purchase bird-watching equipment, expand bird watching scope, select more suitable bird-watching sites, put forward personal bird-watching topics, alleviate the shortcomings of previous equipment as well as the limitations of observation scope and methods, and observe birds more scientifically and rigorously, so as to prepare for future study in bird ecological project.

Protect the environment

IG2 Rose Fu

I have benefited a lot from this bird-watching activity. I have noticed that there are many birds around us, and I have also learned how to distinguish their species. I have become more interested in birds. I also realise the importance of protecting the environment. I hope that humans and animals can coexist harmoniously.

The ultimate goal of education is to empower our students. Bird-watching activity is not only a great way of major exploration but also a precious opportunity for our students to develop soft skills. Also, it is an example of successful parent-school collaboration. Through this event, we have witnessed Christine’s leadership potential, presentation, and communication skills. Moreover,all the participants grew in theirknowledge of birds, biological diversity, and citizen science during the activity.

We thank Christine"s mumfor hersupport, Dr. Zhang, Christine and Jonathan for their efforts, and you all for your participation.
