A rare seabird has been rescued from an ice cream factory in
Gloucester after the recent strong winds blew it off course.
The exhausted Manx shearwater was rescued by RSPCA animal
collection officer
Staff at the factory, which is known for making Walls Ice
Cream, contacted the charity after spotting the unusual bird in their compound
and becoming concerned for its welfare.
The bird, who is now being cared for by a wildlife centre
before being released back into the wild, is one of more than 300 Manx
shearwaters rescued by the animal welfare charity during the past week after
blustery weather caused problems for the unusual birds.
