A member of the public approached one of our staff today to let us know about a swan with fishing material around its leg. After a thorough inspection of all the swans at swan beach this is the only thing we could see.
It was a bit strange so after a phone call to Hessilhead Wildlife Rescue we’re happy to share that is a spiral bird ring which Hessilhead sometimes use and this individual has been released without it being taken off. It doesn’t cause the bird any harm and makes this individual easy to identify amongst the others.
