A couple of poor transmissions suggest no movement from Lyster from the area that he has now been in since 8 November.

Cloud cover means poor signals
Kasper under cloud
We last heard from Kasper on 6 January. With the cloudy conditions that our birds are experiencing at the moment we think that Kasper’s tag might not be charging too well. The forecast for the weekend is for much less cloud and more sunshine, this should help to charge the tag, so we could hear from Kasper then.
News from Martin
After some weak signals we received a stronger transmission from Martin at 01.07 on 16 January which showed him in the same place as previously, close to the town of Oko, Congo.
Cloudy for Clement
Weak signals from Martin
We heard from Martin today but this, and the previous three transmissions, have been very weak and so it is hard to say accurately where he is. Hopefully we will get a stronger signal from him soon.
Chris moves north
A weak signal from Lyster
Kasper still in Congo
Clement remains in Congo
Still in southern savannah
Kasper is still in the southern savannah, north of Brazzaville. The last good transmission we had from him was on 27 December at 08.34, so we should hear from him again very soon.
