Wagtail trapped in Sainsburys

[elanfan]

Before they bring in pest control and shoot the poor thing can anyone say where we can get hold of a humane trap to capture the little thing so he can be freed outside?

RSPCA are impossible to get hold of RSPB seem disinterested/don't want to help..

Fishing or moth net

Have you noticed most Sainsburys are about 10 metres to the roof level and have huge steel frames giving ample escape routes. The bird has been there for at least 10 days and as the doors are open most of the day could get out if it wanted. I guess it's found a nice source of food, is warm etc. It won't be so comfortable when it gets a .22 pellet to the brain.

I reckon it needs a humane trap setting to get it out. Anyone help in north Cardiff?

There might be a nest but it's just a single bird not a pair. I'd be relatively happy to leave it though the thought of it stting on my foodstuffs doesn't really appeal. However, Sainsburys will call in pest control who will shoot the poor little thing!

Are people really suggesting leaving a bird in a supermarket? What could possibly go wrong with that

Looks that way dun it? I'll report back once it's been shot.
