Just to be clear, while I’m joking around here to make a funny, you’re 100% right and I do everything in my power to be as little intrusive as I can especially in actual natural areas. The birds I’m talking about here are city-rat-style seagulls, they’re not in any danger, in fact if you read the subtext of my original comment, you’ll notice I fly away from them immediately which is the correct thing to do for both them and the drone. Also I’m currently taking steps to move into new niches in my work so I don’t need to fly so often, because while I do love it I recognise it bothers people and wildlife and don’t really want to do it more than I absolutely need to.
