【回答范例】
Mandarin Ducks, which are referred to by the Chinese as Yuan-yang, are frequently featured in oriental arts and are regarded as a symbol of conjugal affection and loyalty. The Mandarin Duck is a medium-sized perching duck, which is approximately half-a-meter long. The adult male is a striking and unmistakable bird. The common characteristics of it include a large/ small body with a red bill, reddish face and "whiskers". The female is usually paler than the male. Mandarins may form small flocks in winter, but rarely associate with other ducks. In the wild, Mandarin Ducks breed in densely wooded areas near shallow lakes, marshes or ponds. They nest in trees close to water and during the spring, the females lay their eggs in the tree's cavity after mating. The males take no part in the incubation, simply leaving the female to secure the eggs on her own. Although this characteristic seems quite cold-blooded, the Mandarin Duck symbol is still widely used in Chinese weddings, because in traditional Chinese lore they have the reputation of wedded bliss and fidelity. However, they are rarely raised as pets in China.
