We did 10 miles or so from the crags car park and up over Wadsworth Moor to top Walshaw and back via Blake Dean. Birds were thin on the ground with a very strong wind making birding difficult.
28+ Red Grouse
2 Ravens and 1 Common Buzzard over high
c20 Goldcrests in the crags
3 Stonechats at middle Walshaw res'r
7 Meadow Pipits for the day (all keeping out of the wind)
1 Grey Heron
c6 Kestrels and that was about it

You deserved a far better bird count than that for the ground you covered!
