Wednesday, I was climbing in the same vicinity of Birds of Prey on Slhanay (formerly known as 'the squaw') and some folks who were on that route reported knocking off a 200lbs block off of the route. Sorry I do not know more details, but I am pretty sure its above the 2nd pitch. They also said there was still a bunch of hang fire left.
Its a busy weekend in Squamish with the festival, hopefully there will be no further incidents.
