Endangered Yellow Wagtails are currently nesting on Butt Hole Scoundrels - Fr. 6b+ (Line 3 on SWCW). Please avoid climbing in the Scoundrels Cave area until the end of September, and keep an eye out for others until then. 

They migrate from Africa to the UK around March till September, so will hopefully be on their way by October.

βeta: An excellent neglected route with good stainless gear. Someone needs to stick clip up it and give it a good clean.

βeta: Very dirty and grassy before the anchor. Decided the topout wasn’t worth the risk. Needs enthusiastic gardening at the top and general cleanup or route will get lost. Looks to have been recently bolted too and potentially an interesting climb with some TLC.
