大盈江水悠悠从高黎贡山发源,冲击出万亩良田的盈江坝子,穿峡谷入伊洛瓦底江。连绵着千里原始森林,是滇西最璀璨的一颗绿色明珠。
The restless water of the great yingjiang River originates from Gaoligong Mountain, through the canyons, washed out the Yingjiang riverbank of ten thousand acres of fertile land and mingles in the Irrawaddy River. With thousand miles of primitive forest, it is the brightest green pearl in western Yunnan.

巨树之上,犀鸟成群
大河之间,鹳鹤相鸣
丛林之光,历久弥新
Above the giant trees, there are flocks of hornbills,
Beside the rivers, storks and cranes sing to each other,
It is a song of forest , have singed for a thousand years .

这里是中国鸟类资源第一县、享有活着的鸟类博物馆美誉,四千多平方公里的土地上有近700种鸟类,占中国鸟类记录总数的近50%。这里是中国犀鸟最好的繁殖地,记录有中国分布的五种犀鸟。中国最大的啄木鸟——大灰啄木鸟,中国最小的猛禽——红腿小隼,中国第一次有影像记录的白翅栖鸭、灰腹角雉等,许许多多的“最”展示了一个五彩缤纷的鸟类国度。这里不光鸟种众多,还有许多中国狭域分布的鸟种。有人说:“盈江归来不看鸟,因为在这里鸟类精灵足以让你回味许久”。
Yingjiang county is on the top of birds resources list in China and enjoys the reputation of a living bird museum. There are nearly 700 species of birds living on this land of more than 4,000 square kilometers. About 50% of the total number of birds recorded in China living here. This is the best breeding place for hornbills in China. There are five species of hornbills recorded in China: China’s largest woodpecker-the giant gray woodpecker, China’s smallest bird of prey-the red-legged falcon, China’s first recorded white-winged duck, gray-bellied pheasant and so on. Many ” the most” show a colorful country of birds. There are not only many bird species here, but also many bird species distributed in narrow areas of China. Some people say, “when Yingjiang comes back, you don’t watch birds any more, because here bird elves are distinguished enough to make you have an aftertaste for a long time.”
