Wild bird rests on blossoming plum tree in Guiyang, SW China's Guizhou

A wild bird rests on a branch of a blossoming plum tree growing on a river bank in Guiyang, capital of southwest China's Guizhou Province, on Jan. 9, 2019. The plum blossom, or prunus mume, is an Asian tree species that flowers in late winter and early spring and is regarded as a seasonal symbol. The flower has various colors, including pink, white, yellow and plum. In a subtropical province like Guizhou, winter is about to end earlier than other northern places where the temperatures are still below freezing. [Photo: Xinhua]
