Enjoying wintersweet in Xishan Park during the Minor Cold solar term

On the day of the Minor Cold solar term, the sun came out, with temperatures ranging from 5-13 degrees and light pollution. With such good weather, I couldn't help but go out to Xishan Park to walk, sunbathe, and see wintersweet flowers. Every year I miss the best time to appreciate wintersweet, either because of the weather, health reasons, or because I'm busy at home. After breakfast, the three of us went out and quickly took a car to Xishan Park. With the morning sun behind us, we climbed up the steps. There were few tourists along the way, and the air was damp and cold. I accidentally found blue particles in the Ophiopogon japonicus, which I guess are the fruits of Ophiopogon japonicus, which are as beautiful as gems. Soon I saw the wintersweet tree! Take a deep breath, it's refreshing and fragrant! So I took out my phone and took a lot of pictures. We passed Ziyun Pavilion and Jiang Wan's tomb one after another, and then came to a small pond, where I was surprised to find a white egret. Afraid of startling it, I quietly stood by the pond and took pictures. It seemed not to see us, leisurely walking in the water, as if posing for us to shoot. When I had enough pictures and wanted to leave, it suddenly flew up. I quickly took out my phone to shoot. Although I captured it flying, the picture was not clear enough. Later, I found it had gone into a stone cave by the pond. I wondered if there were any other egrets inside? As I passed the cave, I carefully checked the entrance and accidentally startled the egret. Looking back, it was already resting on the beam, so we didn't disturb it anymore and left.
