A nature photographer, Krzysztof Chomicz, was photographing the coastal sludge in a nearby town, when he noticed that a bird was stick and in need of help. With firefighters on standby, he jumped into the sludge, and swam towards the bird.
It was a long way from the shore, to where the bird was, thrashing around and trying to clear itself of the mud. The photographer did not have too much to worry about though, as he was secured to dry land by the use of a rope, which the firemen were ready to pull on when he got the bird free.
