Li River
Local fisherman along the Li River. These guys actually train and leash local birds to dive and catch the fish for them, you can see this guys bird on left of his skiff. A collar around the bird's neck prevents them from actually swallowing the catch which is then claimed by the fisherman. I wonder how long this way of life will go on with the increasing influx of tourism in this region?
