Lyster back in the Broads - 24 May 2012

 As of two days ago Lyster was back in the Broads, just west of Acle. He really is covering a lot of ground, presumably in search of female cuckoos. Anecdotal evidence suggests that females are in short supply at the moment.

Lyster far from lazy - 18 May 2012

 Since arriving back in the UK, Lyster has been anything but laggard. Having covered a large area of the Broads, as of yesterday, he was near to the Norfolk/Suffolk border, 6km (3.7 miles) to the west of Diss. He is now 40km (25 miles) south west of where the BTO/BBC team found him in the Broads.

Lyster on the southern edge of the Broads - 10 May 2012

 At 05.46 this morning, Lyster was in a small patch of woodland on the south east edge of Chedgrave in the Norfolk Broads. He is 16km south of his previous location near Ranworth. It is amazing just how much ground he has covered since he arrived in the Broads.
