Soil Hill etc....

I tried Soil Hill this morning (though later than DJB)!!

I didn't pick any movement at all other than some birds that were really high  >SW too far away for any idea what they were. I only did the summit, as was NK so we had a nice chat. 1 Stonechat, 1 Grey Heron, 2 Jays went >N I watched them out of sight. Another Jay 'blogging', 1 Kestrel and a hand-full of Meadow Pipits.

Report from Rochdale birder (SA) at Blackstone Edge of 16 Whooper Swans went over heading >SE around 10:00. Time to watch out for some more over Calderdale any time now, hopefully more skeins of Pink-footed Geese too. Occasionally both species can be heard overhead during the night !
