Phenological phenomena

The beginning of winter means that all things begin to enter a state of rest and collection. Wu Cheng, a scholar in the Yuan Dynasty, compiled "The Collection of Seventy-two Hours of the Moon Order". He divided the twenty-four solar terms in a year into "seventy-two periods", and each solar term was divided into three periods. The three periods of Beginning of Winter are: "The first period is when the water begins to freeze; the second period is when the ground begins to freeze; the third period is when pheasants enter the water and become mirages."

This means that at this time, the water can already freeze; the land also begins to freeze. Freeze; when a pheasant enters the water, it becomes a mirage. The pheasant in the pheasant refers to a large bird such as a pheasant, and the pheasant is a large clam. After the beginning of winter, large birds such as pheasants are rare, but large clams whose shells have similar lines and colors to those of pheasants can be seen on the beach. Therefore, it is believed that pheasants turn into giant clams after the beginning of winter.
