Hey well I just spent like half an hour trying to get the search engine to work, but it never seems to do what I want it to do. Anyways I remember there was a thread on this a while ago. I'm wondering what the type of bird it is that nests all over the cliffs are. I'm pretty sure its mostly a type of swallow? Does any one know what kind though? They make the mud nests? It also seems like theres a slightly bigger bird that will nest on the cliff pigeons of some type? I know the birds of prey and such. I just want to know what the major population is. Thanks in advanced.
