PLASTIC affecting the environment has been a hot topic over recent months.
Helen Evans, of Ruthin, took this photograph while she was walking through Cae Ddol.
"I noticed last year's cygnet had found a plastic cup," explained Helen.
"It kept picking it up and crunching it.
"The cygnet was coughing and drinking water.
"Eventually it swam onto the lake and I was able to remove the plastic."
