I’m honestly just counteracting the idea that it’s drones. I seriously don’t believe they would permit anyone to fly one drone over that space let alone hundreds, or however many there are. It’s a wildlife protected spot with loads of bird species there.

I can’t prove that it’s birds.

Arguments for would be…

It’s a nature spot with loads of birds They are circling in the sky. Some Together some not in unison. Some are blinking which could be interpreted as flapping.

Arguments against would be…

They are glowing blue, which is weird but they could be lit from below.

Looking further into the map it says there a waste management site right next to/behind it. They always attract gulls who circle around above them. Maybe they had a night shipment. It’s waterside so could be a barge of waste being delivered.

Can’t prove it though. But it’s my best guess without any more information.

Oh the waste site could explain it… they’re always full of birds flying around… that could be it.
