After being blessed by the pope the Bells than fly back to their French and Belgian Churches collecting eggs on the way back.
Then they release the eggs along their path and children go and collect the eggs then the bells are wrung to announce the "Return" of Jesus Christ.
These Easter Bells are a clear Christianization of a pagan celebration and tradition. This is especially obvious given how quickly this tradition dating from the 7th century is giving way to the nearby German Easter Hare. However it is a unique and surprising custom I had not heard about until recently. -TAO
They Also make Chocolate Bells for Easter, which is a plus if you have a sweet tooth. While I do not think this is a Pagan tradition so much as a heavily Church influenced tradition akin to burning Judas instead of Marzanna to say goodbye to winter. I must bring to mind at least one pagan tradition that may tie into that of the bells that spirits in Wilder Mann traditions and the goddess Holle have around the changing of the seasons. So it may have something to do with that, though I must admit to doubting that at this point in my readings.-TAO
The Seelie and Unseelie Courts: Are two courts of Fae in Scottish folklore. They could be classed as political divisions within the realm of fae, or as seasonal differences in the attitudes or types of fae in Scotland. The Seelie (Blessed/Holy) Court is often considered more kind to humans, though this should not be confused with beneficial. More that they will warn humans who have crossed the line and may even help provided they are not offended. The Seelie court is broken down into further courts such as the Spring Court and Summer Court, notable members may include: Puck, Oberon, and Titania. More helpful spirits such as Hobgoblins and Brownies can be found in this court. The Unseelie (Unblessed/Unholy) Court is much the same except they are not likely to warn and will often harm humans without provocation, just because the fancy took them. If they are fond of humans rather than aid they may find you entertaining as a sort of pet. The Unseelie court is said to be present in Autumn and Winter and notable members include: Queen Mab and Morgan le Fae, Boggarts and Bogies may be present in this court. While these courts are by and large a sort of division within the realm of fae between different temperates and seasonal functions they in many ways resemble stories of the Riders of the Sidhe or the Wild Hunt. Their association with the seasons especially. It is also possible that there were only the Seelie Courts pre-Christianity split by seasons but the Unseelie court was added in later with the after effects of Christian beliefs on the folk faith.

Pretty, naturally dyed Easter eggs! Yay! 😁🐣🐇🌸
Sorbian Easter Eggs. While eggs as spring symbols are essentially Pan-European the heavyweight champ for cultural importance and intricate designs is definitely the Slavic peoples.
Pysanky Ukrainian Easter Eggs are some of the most detailed with the most complex set of symbols.

The Kraft Easter Tree in Germany is one of the most spectacular examples of the German Easter Tree tradition, having had a year where over 10,000 decorated eggs hung from their tree.
