Was at coastguard south, Xavier's wall/bad moon rising area on Saturday 24th April. There were a family of seagulls nesting just beside Young at Heart and another group of fast moving darker feathered birds nesting just above them (couldn't get an Coastguard SouthYoung at Heart (6a+)ID but possibly birds of prey given their speed and flow). There were definitely some young ones and they were all very active across the sector.
Is this an appropriate place to make a notification about this? What is the general best practice for communicating/reporting nesting birds at crags?
From the reactions of a few other teams in the area, do people typically not worry if the birds are seagulls? Is there a hierarchy of what birds are ok to disturb and what are not?
Personally, walked away. It's their home first.
Interested in anyone's thoughts on this.
