Just heard some Geese, which sound almost identical to Pink-Feet passing over my house in H'den. Definitely not Canada Geese as they have a very different sound. I could not see any but the sounds appeared to be heading towards Grane and not Cribden. I could hear them from my attic at about 9pm today...
