The traditional cormorant fishing (鸕鶿捕鱼) is one of the greatest cultural treasures of the “Bai” people (白族), this “cormorant fishing team” consists of the fisherman and his cormorants was being captured while they are getting ready to demonstrate their skill to the tourists under the hot sun shining at the Erhai Lake (洱海) of Dali, Yunnan Province of China.
