(CNA, Chiayi County, May 21, by reporter Tsai Chih-ming) The Chiayi Branch of the Ministry of Agriculture's Forestry and Nature Conservation Agency issued a press release today stating that its film on the ecological conservation achievements at Aogu Wetland, 'Song of Life,' has won the Special Jury Award in the Ecology, Environment, and Conservation category at the 2026 WorldFest Houston International Film Festival. The Chiayi Branch said 'Song of Life' took two years to film and produce, capturing the interplay of light and shadow and species interaction in the wetland through documentary footage to showcase the moving beauty of natural symbiosis, earning recognition from the 59th WorldFest Houston International Film Festival. Li Ding-zhong, Director of the Chiayi Branch, said 'Song of Life' revolves around the concept of the wetland as a new paradise. The film's inspiration came from the creative concepts of the poet Du Ye, filming the day and night natural landscapes and rich ecological diversity within the Aogu Wetland Forest Park to record the beauty of change and survival among all living things in the wetland. Li expressed hope that through the film, audiences can see the wetland from a different perspective, understand the connection and coexistence within nature, and inspire more people to pay attention to environmental conservation. Li stated that Aogu Wetland is an important wetland ecosystem in the Chiayi area, with vast waters and abundant food resources, providing an ideal environment for birds to nurture new life. It is currently the bird breeding season, and busy mother birds can be seen flying in and out, diligently caring for the next generation. The Chiayi Branch indicated that for more information about 'Song of Life' or bird-watching activities, the public can check the 'Aogu Wetland Fan Group' on Facebook or contact the Aogu Wetland Ecology Exhibition Hall (05-3601801). To arrange bird-watching or park guided tours, inquiries can be made to the Aogu Wetland Ecotourism single contact window (0975922678) for reservations. (Editor: Li Ming-tsung) 1150521
