Chapter 497

Wear rain boots and have active children. I can't wait to go to the field!

The parents were on the side and hurriedly pulled them back and said, "Hey, wait a minute, listen to the principal say the main points of transplanting!"

Fang ye said with a smile, "when transplanting rice seedlings, everyone remembers to transplant rice seedlings upside down and squat half, which can save a little effort. Note that the distance between rice and rice should be about 20cm. "

He stretched out his palm and looked at it: "it's probably as wide as my two palms!"

Qian Keke took the lead, his eyes flashing with excitement, "ha ha" smiled and rushed into the water!

"I'm going to insert ten lines today!"

As soon as they enter the field, the children will automatically divide their own areas.

Just in primary school, the youngest puddings stand on the edge of the ridge, allowing parents to hold hands and explore slowly without falling into the mud.

"Hey, coco, slow down and wait for me!"

Tang Xiaoxin rolled up her shorts again, holding a bundle of seedlings and carefully stepping into the field with her white feet.

I'm afraid the action is too violent, splashing water and soiling my shorts.

Although she knows that the clothes will be dirty after planting, isn't it still dirty.

The feet fell into the wet soil, surrounded by the slippery soft and sticky mud, and the cool water surged between the toes. A very wonderful feeling came to my heart!

Step on it, step on it again!

The muddy water was stirred by the feet, making a "clatter" sound of water and a "Baji" sound of stepping on the mud.

It's no more fun than school physical education.

Going to the field barefoot will stain your clothes, but this experience is really incomparable with wearing rain boots!

Originally, some lazy sleepiness was washed away by cool muddy water, and the connection with this world seems to be closer.

Tang's father and mother took two pictures of her outside. We must take pictures to read.

The left hand holds a bundle of seedlings, the right hand separates one, and the root is pressed into the mud.

After inserting it, I felt a little crooked!

Again.

Although Fang Ye told the children about the skills of rice transplanting, the real rice transplanting still depends on practice to improve their proficiency.

It was the first time for the children to plant rice seedlings, which was staggering. It took a lot of time to plant each one.

I forgot to control the distance after inserting a few.

From 20cm, to 10cm, 5cm!

The parents nearby quickly reminded me that the children pulled up the seedlings and replanted them.

Including Fang Ye himself, although he watched the video and learned it before, he was not very skilled in inserting it.

I can only say it's better than children.

Focus on participation! What matters is this process.

"Cuckoo ~ cuckoo ~"

A dark gray cuckoo, hiding in the woods, sang tirelessly.

While transplanting rice seedlings, Fang ye heard the sound of cuckoo birds, and said to the children, "have you heard cuckoo cuckoo birds?"

The children immediately listened carefully!

"Well, that's the sound of my alarm clock!"

"It's a cuckoo! Eh, is the cuckoo urging us to plant rice seedlings? "

"Where is it?"

Cuckoo is also famous among birds because of its unique song and cry!

But most people only know names and calls.

Fang ye said with a smile, "cuckoo is the common name of the big cuckoo! It is a widely distributed bird. The back is gray, the iris, eye circles and claws are yellow. The upper mouth is gray black and the lower mouth is yellow. Although the voice is very loud, it is generally invisible. "

With a finger, an animal statue beside the rice field: "this is the cuckoo!"

On the edge of the rice field, there are some common animal statues, cuckoos, butterflies, earthworms, dragonflies, ladybugs and so on.

Farming is a way, not an end. Otherwise, why don't you use machines to transplant seedlings.

It is more important to get to know and get close to nature in this process, so I will tell the children about these field animals and what is nature friendly agriculture.

The children looked at the cuckoo statue and finally knew what it looked like this time.

Tang Xiaoxin thought of something: "eh, didn't the cuckoo say that it would lay eggs in the nests of other birds?"

Fang ye said, "yes! Rhododendrons do not need to build nests or hatch their own eggs. Instead, they lay their eggs in the nests of other birds and are fed by their adoptive parents.

Especially on the edge of the reed near the water, there is a bird called reed warbler, which is the favorite host of the big Rhododendron.

When the reed warblers build their nests, the big cuckoo will keep an eye on them. It will see the right time and startle the reed warblers who are hatching eggs. Then it will quickly pick up an egg of the reed warbler, lay its own egg and fly away in a few seconds.

When the reed warbler and his wife come back, they continue to hatch their eggs. The young cuckoo will first break its shell, and then squeeze other young birds that have not hatched down to enjoy the reed warbler and his wife's food.

The young Rhododendron grows very fast. After breaking its shell in ten to twenty days, it can grow much larger than its adoptive parents, and the whole nest can't hold it.

Although the big cuckoo hasn't seen her parents since she was a child and grows up alone, the female big cuckoo can master this skill without a teacher. "

"Wow! How cunning! "

"How hateful!"

"How cruel!"

The simple minded child was very angry and filled with righteous indignation.

Even some parents on the side were even more angry!

After all, I have children. Who can stand the thought of my children being pushed down and raising children for the murderer.

From time to time, the news also saw what was wrong with life for 20 years. The prototype of the film "lost orphan" ran for decades and finally found the abducted child, but the family relationship with the child will never come back.

Fang Ye smiled: "for animals, our human moral judgment is not applicable. There are no good animals or bad animals.

This way of parasitism is only their behavior evolved naturally for better reproduction. Each animal has its own way of survival.

In fact, the Rhododendron has been an insect eater all its life. It can eliminate pine caterpillars and thorn moth larvae that other birds dare not eat. They are also an indispensable member of the ecological network and play a very important role in maintaining ecological balance. "

The children listened and thought deeply.

The understanding of nature is deeper!

Tang Xiaoxin asked curiously, "can't the reed warbler's parents recognize the young birds of the big Rhododendron because they grow so big and so fast?"

Fang Ye explained: "it's like we humans like to see lovely children or animal cubs. We want to give something to eat and coax them. It's an instinct. The cry of young birds begging for food and their wide mouths are stimulating the feeding instinct of their parents.

The cuckoo is improving the camouflage ability of its eggs. The raw eggs look like the reed warbler's eggs. The reed warbler's recognition ability is also improving. If the camouflage is slightly worse, it will throw its eggs out.

Even reed warblers in some places, as long as they see a large Rhododendron wandering nearby, they will collectively enter the state of alert and abandon their nest after a word of discord. This is the 'co evolution' of nature. "
