A baby can also be heard crying on the plane as audibly concerned passengers talk about how the birds will affect their journey.

The birds were found when the luggage shelf was opened after the flight gates were shut and everyone had boarded, a passenger revealed.

Airline GoAir on the incident said that the birds were quickly removed and the passengers remained safe.
