Since having his tag fitted, Thomas spent the next 9 days moving around his tagging site in Thetford Forest, Norfolk. However, during the early morning of 14 May we recieved a series of locations from his tag that showed he had left the forest, heading southeast over East Anglia and Kent, before crossing the English Channel and flying over northern France. He didn't stop there, he is currently in the south of France, in a patch of woodland close to Langeac. He has flown 850km (528 miles) in two days and is our most southerly Cuckoo at this time.
