Delightful footage shows the moment a dog-walker freed a trapped bird from horsehair - before it flew off happily into the sunset.
Ashley was out walking her dog in Bradford when she spotted a tiny bird, with yellow and black wings, tangled in a strand of horse hair, with the same strand of hair wrapped around a weed plant.

Once the bird was safely rescued from the horsehair and weeds, Ashley was able to open her hand, where the bird sat on her palm for a few moments - before flying off across the fields.
