A swallow built its nest on a light - then needed rescuing when the heat melted the bird home.

Footage shows the bird trying to pull away from its softened structure of twigs and saliva on the edge of the fluorescent bulb.

However, the bird's feathers were tangled with the objects, including hair and grass padding, used to build the nest in Chiang Rai province, northern Thailand.

It hung helplessly after fluttering its wings without success until a father climbed up the table to help free the animal.

In the morning, the house resident Yutthana used scissors to cut some of the hay and human hair protruding from the nest to keep the bird from being stuck again in case it returned.
