Thanks droffarc! I am surprised that they would allow drones but what a great place for photo and videography. There have been times that I had to get my drone down on the ground because birds would go after it. Beautiful area, apprciate you sharing

Thanks Joe, this is an open area and is left pretty much alone.
There is a hide which sometimes is used by vagrants to sleep in.
I think the birds will only attack in breeding season or in the case of raptors, when they are hungry (only happened to me once), and mostly I fly relatively slowly and fairly high so as not to disturb them unduly.
