Rescuers almost manage to net seagull stuck in Bristol Asda store

A group of volunteers with a bird rescue organisation almost managed to safely capture the seagull that has been living inside the Bedminster Asda store for the past two weeks last night. But their attempts were unsuccessful and the bird is thought to be still on the loose.

And the story of the young female gull, which was broken by Bristol Live on Tuesday, has gone nationwide, with BBC Radio 1’s Greg James chatting about it to millions of listeners on the breakfast show on Wednesday morning.

The attempt to capture the gull happened on Tuesday evening (June 20), with local volunteers from the Foundation for Feathered Friends charity spending around an hour and a half at the store before it closed at 10pm.
