PIC: RSPCA/APEX 17/02/2021 A white swan has been turned black by what is thought to be printer toner dumped in a pond. The mute swan was rescued from the water in Westbury, Wiltshire, covered in a black powdery substance.. It was taken to RSPCA West Hatch where staff said it will take "quite a lot of Fairy Liquid to get it clean". RSPCA Inspector Steph Daly said: "I was horrified because it looked like a black swan. "We're still really baffled as to what this substance is." The distressed bird was spotted preening and trying to clean the substance off in a pond off Mane Way on Friday before being rescued on Saturday. Insp Daly said: "We were really concerned because of the state of it. "We assumed it was oil but it's more powdery like photocopier ink toner." The charity said staff were "busy with the job of washing the substance off" but with each wash taking 30 minutes, it was "labour intensive". ** SEE STORY BY APEX NEWS - 01392 823144 ** ---------------------------------------------------- APEX NEWS AND PICTURES NEWS DESK: 01392 823144 PICTURE DESK: 01392 823145
