Over recent weeks, one benefit for the wildlife of Haikou City has been the lack of humans in the streets and parks. 

Park re-opens

The park has recently re-opened to the public and you’ll be free to roam around providing you are wearing a mask and pass through one of the temperature checkpoints. 

Kapok trees in bloom

It’s also the time of year that Kapok trees bloom, signalling a change in the seasons. Trees are usually in bloom from early February till mid-March.

The trees are very popular with our feathered friends as they offer protection, a food source and the deep flower bulbs also collect water, which is a natural water butt for wildlife.
