Cătălin Roșioru

Firefighters rushed to rescue a swan that was stuck in a frozen Connecticut lake this week after a spell of freezing temperatures in the area, according to reports. The Norwalk Fire Department suited up in cold-water rescue gear and used ropes to carefully move onto the frozen Norwalk River on Tuesday and locate the trapped feathered friend. Rescuers soon learned that the poor swan’s feet were frozen into the ice — and spent half an hour chipping away at the frozen lake to finally free the bird.
