Congratulations Seema, your spotting has been featured in the Project Noah blog today as an example of the impact that the plastics we consume is having on the environment. http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/32332030761/the-perils-of-plastic

How sad. Litter makes me angry - it is so thoughtless & causes so many problems for wildlife. I'm pleased this little guy was OK.
