The last photo is of a Cormorant fisher with her birds. The cormorants are tied to posts on the boat, and the woman gives them a little shove into the water with a pole she carries. She smacks the water with the pole (I'm not sure why, maybe it attracts fish, or maybe it scares the birds) and the birds dive down into the water. When they come up with fish in their maw, she grabs them out of the water, reaches into their beaks and pulls out the fish. She repeats this process with all four of her birds.

Hey Ryan!
Thanks for leaving a comment! That's so cool that you started taking chinese lessons. We'll have to see if we can pull off a mandarin conversation when we're back for a visit. Shoot me an email and let me know how school is going and everything!
