Cuthbert is not hanging about now and has pressed straight on across the Gulf of Cadiz to Africa.
At 9am this morning he was in the Sahara, 42 km (26 miles) south east of the City of Samara in Western Sahara, having flown 1,791 km (1,113 miles) since leaving northern Spain!
Hopefully he has built up sufficient fat reserves to carry him safely across to the other side of the Sahara. There were 30-40mph north-easterly winds in this area yesterday which should help Cuthbert along nicely to Senegal. Fingers crossed!
