By early Sunday morning Clement appeared to have moved east back towards his previous location but the accuracy of this position is low so it is difficult to be sure.

Clement may be moving east
20 Jun 2011
Chris has left the country!
17 Jun 2011
An accurate location received in the afternoon of Friday (17 June) places Chris in a narrow finger of the Netherlands just a few kms from both Belguim and Germany! Chris has moved 370km (230 miles) due east from Sedlescombe in two days – he is our third Cuckoo to leave the country.
Clement moves closer to the coast
17 Jun 2011
On Thursday (16 June) afternoon Clement was 12km (7 miles) east of Toulon, very close to the southern tip of the south coast of France.
Martin near Great Yarmouth
17 Jun 2011
By Thursday afternoon, Martin had moved slightly south and was in the area 5km (3 miles) inland from Great Yarmouth, just north of the River Bure near Runham.
Rob Martin reports that on the morning of 7 June he and Daniel Watson found a Cuckoo with a transmitter antenna visible coming from its back in Winterton Dunes. Clearly this was Martin and provides nice confirmation of his stay in the area!
Kasper's new location coming soon
17 Jun 2011
As of 1600hrs on Friday afternoon, we have received no new locations for Kasper. His tag should start to transmit anytime now - at 1000hrs on Saturday any new locations from this transmission period will appear on the maps.
Lyster detected near Reedham
17 Jun 2011
On Thursday afternoon, Lyster was still close to Reedham.
Clement almost at the Med'
15 Jun 2011
Clement has continued to move south in France – by midday on Tuesday (14 June) he had almost reached the southern coast and was located in a range of wooded hills 30km (18 miles) ENE of Toulon.
Chris remains in Cuckoo hotspot
15 Jun 2011
Chris is still in the Sedlescombe area of East Sussex.
We have been contacted by Mr Patrick Roper who lives in the Sedlescombe area and he reports that the area has been good for Cuckoos this year, unlike other places nearby. He wonders whether Chris might have homed in on the area because of this? It could well explain why Chris hasn’t moved further south.
At the time of writing, no further, accurate positions have been received for Chris.
Martin still close to tagging site
15 Jun 2011
No further accurate positions have been received for Martin but he appears to still be in the area inland of Winterton Dunes, Norfolk, not too far from where the tag was fitted.
Lyster close to the village of Freehope
15 Jun 2011
Lyster remains in the same area that he has been frequenting - the most accurate recent position received puts him close to the village of Freehope.
