More and more Pink-footed Geese....

Lots of messages coming in this morning about flocks of 'pinks' passing through and over Calderdale at least till mid-day.

Very misty in places during the morning. Wheatley Valley was such with around 6 skeins unseen. ! Similar elsewhere though some were seen over Soil Hill, Ovenden, Queensbury, Ogden and Hebden Bridge Not sure how many, as several flocks were just heard and others possibly duplicated with most of them in a westerly direction.

Maybe some more this afternoon...... update..... just one skein this aft, as far as I know, with a small flock of 42 around 3:50 high over Ogden >WNW towards the wind farm.
Also over Ogden Back Lane c20 Crossbill flyovers into the plantation and a Dipper in the pond at the top of the reservoir.
