Taijiang National Park Headquarters hosted the press conference and premiere in Tainan for the documentary film- “Travelers in the Winds- The Black-faced Spoonbill”.

The black-faced spoonbill is a star species in the international conservation communities and a significant target of protection at Taijiang National Park. Taijiang National Park Headquarters launched a two-year filming project in 2011 and completed the documentary film, entitled “Travelers in the Winds- The Black-faced Spoonbill”, in the end of 2012. Through the lenses, the production crew documented the lives, migration, and domestic/international conservation of black-faced spoonbills and explored the significance of their presence in the local communities, the Greater Tainan area, and Taijiang National Park. This documentary film faithfully conveys the inspirations of the great nature in the missions of environmental education and conservation through the national parks.
