Wainstalls/Cold Edge/Fly Flats

Well done Matt picking up the Pink-footed Geese.
We also had the 200+ (at a distance) over Mount Tabor at 11.35 going west, probably the ones you saw.
Another 240 over Cold Edge at 12.20 heading west towards Midgley Moor.

Also today - 1 Brambling in the garden behind the Delvers pub (but elusive) with c20 Chaffinch and a female Sparrowhawk over.

Cold Edge - 1 adult Cormorant looking immaculate with big white patch on thighs headed off towards Calder Valley at 12.30. Also 9 Lapwings, 9 Greylag Geese, 1 Moorhen, 18 Mallard and usual Red Grouse on the moor.

Withens gap - 6 Fieldfares.

Fly Flats - 1 Skylark down the track to the sailing club and a Raven over the moor along with the usual Red Grouse.

Back on line now but back on pay as you go after giant cock up with orange broadband.

Welcome back, we were getting worried about you!
I wouldn't give up on broadband Bri, I'm sure there must be better providers than Orange, broadband is much quicker and if you spend quite a lot of time on the web cheaper also.
