Recently, thousands of migratory black-headed gulls have flown from Siberia to Kunming, capital city of southwest China's Yunnan province. Gulls have been migrating to the spring city every winter to escape chilly weather since 1985. These black-headed gulls gather in Kunming and form a beautiful scene of the city in winter.
