Return of Hamburg's Alster swans signals start of springtime

Hamburg’s famous Alster swans returned to the water few weeks late on Monday as this year's brutally long winter prepared to give way to springtime temperatures this week.
After more than four months in their winter quarters, Hamburg's “swan father” Olaf Nieß lead several boats to move 120 birds to the port city’s outer Alster lake.
The animals will now be able to find sufficient food on their own, a spokesperson from the Hamburg-Nord district said.
At the end of the November the swans made their traditional trek to their winter retreat in the Eppendorf district’s mill pond, which is kept free of ice year round.
They have been a part of the city landscape since the 11th , under the care of a “swan father” - Hamburg’s oldest municipal post – since 1674.
