Two sea birds have been rescued
from a Ceredigion village after being blown off course.
The Manx shearwaters were found
in a distressed state at a pub in Tresaith following recent stormy weather.
The RSPCA took them to Gower Bird
Hospital for assessment and rehabilitation.

The charity has received several
call-outs recently about the welfare of Manx shearwaters, which they say is due
to the time of year.
In 2011, more than 500 juvenile
Manx shearwaters were rescued from the surf in Newgale and from gardens in
Pembrokeshire after they were blown off course by 44mph winds.
