Manx Shearwater in Puncheston

From Mike B:

Yesterday the 16th Sept around 20.30 my wife and I heard a tapping going to and fro across our patio window. Someone trying to get in. 
We opened the curtains to see the noise was from a Manx Shearwater on the ground.
Knowing the struggle they have to get off the ground, I picked him up, put him in a cardboard box and then contacted Pembs Birds for advice.
That advice was to take it to the Ocean lab centre, Goodwick who will check him out, ring him and release him.
