Updates from our Cuckoos

We last heard from Peckham on 13 January. The location recieved showed that he was still in the area of Gabon in which he has spent most of the winter. Hopefully we will get an update from him soon.

Having spent the last two months in Angola, Larry is now back in DRC, moving 639km (397 miles) north-east. He is currently 80km (50 miles) east of the border with Congo.

We haven't heard from Disco Tony since 13 January but at that time he had moved north back into Gabon, around 60km (35 miles) north-east of his previous location in Gabon.

We haven't heard anything from David since mid-December when he was located in southern DRC. We are not too concerned at this stage as Cuckoos often go missing for a few weeks only to pop up again. Hopefully, David is feeding up in preparation for a northward movement.

Coo has moved north and is now 400km (250 miles) north-west of his mid-winter location in the DRC. He is currently just north of Lac Tumba and will be preparing for his next move north and west and the beginning of his long journey back to the UK.

A location received from Coo during the early morning of 16 December showed him settled on the southern edge of the rainfrest, in the area that he has spent the early part of the winter.

David is still in DRC but has moved 228km (141 miles) south within the rainforest. Larry is the only tagged Cuckoo further south than David.

Vigilamus is currently 81km (50 miles) east of Lac Mai, DRC, an area where several Cuckoos have spent the winter previously.

A location received in the early evening of 17 December showed that Stanley had undertaken a short 42km (26 miles) flight south west. He is still on the southern edge of the Congo rainforest.

A location received from Larry on the 16 December showed that he was still settled in Angola.
