Oystercatcher in trouble


Eight oystercatchers were feeding and sleeping on Tanybwlch beach this Sunday morning. One of them had something attached to its beak. After enlarging the photo, the object looks like an angler's hook. Should we just hope that the oystercatcher will manage to get rid of it by itself? If not, what can be cone to help it?
