I only know of the ladder route down the gully, which looks just horrible, and the srt route which starts at the now dead tree. There was a spit just over the lip to minimise rope rub.Which SRT drop, Topcat? It's a very big hole with assorted ways to descend.
Going by that, I suspect they eat jackdaws...No, but they are Schedule 1.............very protected.
I know of a pair who normally nest in a quarry in Wales, their preferred diet used to be racing pigeons and they ignored the resident Jackdaws. When the racing pigeon route was changed due to obvious losses, they turned on their erstwhile neighbours the Jackdaws, result a lot less Jackdaws.Going by that, I suspect they eat jackdaws...
Unfortunately lots of people in the Dales kill them (yes, it's illegal, but these sorts of people think the law doesn't apply to them). Best to keep these things on the DL. Hopefully none of thoseNo, but they are Schedule 1.............very protected.
I was referring to the birds in question... not Jackdaws!They have still massively increased in numbers since most cavers were born
