David in Guinea or Sierra Leone?

01 Apr 2014

Despite Patch's recent westerly movement to Guinea, David may still be the most westerly Cuckoo. Poor quality signals suggest that David continued on from Mali and could be in either Sierra Leone or Guinea. Last year, he was in a very similar location, almost on the Guinea/Sierra Leone border by the 8 April. This was preceeded by a couple of weeks of silence so we can't tell whether he is on schedule or ahead of last year. We will have to await further signals to confirm his current location and update the map positions.
