What does this exactly mean when Birds fly over your head, in a situation like this?
Anything i can do to avoid it?
Who's at fault here?

That only happens when you are standing on the same spot for too long, after some time the killer will get a notification.

Just keep moving and you are good to go.

staying in a spot for too long will atract the crows

Game thinks you were not doing anything. Probably because you weren't doing anything. Those are there to stop people going AFK in a hiding place all match by leading the killer to you.

Killer doesn't get a "notification" but can see the birds and put two and two together. Birds will appear also if you're inside a closet for too long.

If killer runs "spies from the shadows" perk, he gets a notification when survivor scares the crows. Thats about it.

Nah man, if you got at least 3 crows over your head the killer gets a notification.
https://deadbydaylight.gamepedia.com/Crows: [Up to three Stillness Crows can appear unless the Survivor moves away from the area they were in or starts performing interactions. The third Stillness Crow will give the Killer a noise indicator to the Survivor's precise location.]

just to clarify - it is not only staying on the same spot, but: moving within a 5 meters... so you need to move a larger distance than 5 meters to avoid crows from appearing

Hmm, I guess I've never seen stillness crows then in my 300ish hours of playing a killer... Lot of survivors play like they are on amfetamine. ..
