A brave bird in the United Kingdom, was seen on video walking into a
bakery and stealing a bag of potato chips before heading for the exit.
The video that was uploaded to YouTube, shows the white and grey bird
walking into the Greggs store in South Shields, Tyne and Wear, before
stealing a package of salt and vinegar chips from the bottom shelf.
The bizarre incident was recorded by a customer inside the store.
41-year-old Gordon Lindsay said that he saw the bird casually strolling
past the main counter before picking up the package with its beak.
The bird then walked towards the automatic electronic door.
Several employees tried to scare away the bird, but it ignored them.
When the bird reached the door, it flapped its wings in order to open
it.
Lindsay said that he never saw such a clever bird in his life.
Lindsay works in retail in the area, and complains that the place is
full of birds. He never walks down the street with food in his hands
because the birds would just steal it.
