The town hall now hosts a feathered resident.
In the heart of the picturesque town of Greifswald, a surprising sight has been captured for the city's 775th birthday celebrations in mid-May. Perched on the ochre-coloured facade of the town hall, a dark structure can be seen nestled within a green catch net.
The administration of the Greifswald town hall, which is currently led by Mayor Stefan Fassbinder (Greens), has confirmed that the dark structure is indeed a nest. A photo taken from a window of the town hall provides a closer look at the nest, which seems to have been built this year.
Interestingly, the construction of the nest appears to have progressed quickly, and it was not present in a photograph from the end of February. Despite this rapid growth, no bird was spotted in the recent photograph of the nest, and neither feathers nor eggs were visible.
The identity of the bird species that has secretly settled in the net remains unclear. The administration of the town hall has not yet taken any action regarding the nest, and they have not noticed the construction in the net until recently.
The Greifswald town hall market square, which spans 11,000 square meters and is paved with Lusatian granite, has a net installed on its facade to prevent falling debris. This net may have provided a suitable location for the nest's construction.
Despite the mystery surrounding the nest, the Greifswald town hall administration has no plans to remove it. As the town hall continues to celebrate its historic milestone, residents and visitors may soon be treated to the sounds of chirping from the new addition to the town's skyline.
While no definitive information about the bird species building the nest was found in the search results, the enigma adds an exciting twist to the town's anniversary celebrations. As the nesting process continues, the town of Greifswald eagerly awaits the arrival of its new feathered resident.
The enigma of the unknown bird species building its nest on the home-and-garden net installed on the Greifswald town hall market square has added an intriguing lifestyle element to the town's celebrations. As the town hall continues to celebrate its historic milestone, residents and visitors may soon be looking out for the arrival of its new feathered resident, adding a charming touch to the picturesque town's traditional home-and-garden scenery.
