There has been no further movement from Bill since he arrived in Nigeria on 13 September. However, locations received from him during the early morning of 3 October show he is alive and well and still just to the east of Lake Jebba.

Bill still in Nigeria
04 Oct 2016
161321 heading east again
04 Oct 2016
On 22 September locations received from 161321 showed that he had left Benin and was heading east across southern Nigeria. Further locations received since then show that he is currently settled in the area he arrived in on 22 September. He is in an area of wet forest north of the town of Ejiba.
Still no news from 161319
04 Oct 2016
We haven't heard from 161319 for over a month now and fear the worse. As we have no further information we don't really know what happened to him, other than he didn't seem to make it out of the Italian Alps. The last location we have for him is in a wooded Valley just north of Finele in the Province of Bolzano.
PJ settled
19 Sep 2016
Locations receievd from PJ on 19 September show that he is still settled in southern Niger.
Peckham crosses the desert
19 Sep 2016
It seems that Peckham had started his desert crossing on 6 September, as when we next heard from him on 9 September he was in southern Libya and about half-way across the desert. By the early hours of 11 September he had successfully crossed and was in northern Cameroon. He has sinced moved east and is currently in southern Chad.
No movement from Markoo
19 Sep 2016
Markoo seems settled in northwest Nigeria, at what must be his stopover site before heading east towards the Congo rainforest.
Larry still settled
19 Sep 2016
Larry is still in his southern Chad stopover site.
Jack still taking it slow
19 Sep 2016
A good quality location received from Jack's tag during the evening of 17 September showed that he was still in northern Italy on the banks of the River Po, close to Lombriasco. How much longer it will be before he makes his move south we don't know but it would seem that he is now running a little late.
Still no news
19 Sep 2016
We still have no further news of Disco Tony. There is a slim chance that his tag will still spring back into life, and we have our fingers crossed that this will be the case.
No movement from David
19 Sep 2016
David is still settled in his stopover site in southern Chad.
