Schwedt / Oder (dpa / bb) - Whooper swans, wild geese and kingfishers can discover these days in the Lower Odertal National Park (Barnim / Uckermark).

Several hundred whooper swans are already out and about at the turn of the year, as head Dirk Treichel said.

The swans are at home in Eastern Europe and Siberia and are among the traditional winter guests in the national park, which has existed for 25 years.

The traditional Singschwantage in the Lower Oder Valley, which is popular with visitors, has now been canceled for the second time.

They were scheduled from January 29th to 31st and were canceled due to the corona pandemic.

At the beginning of 2020 they were canceled because there were hardly any birds to be found.
