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: I traversed in from the right to get to the flake, rest of the route was nice enough, loose in places though.
