Well Mallachie has hung around Sotokoi in The Gambia for the last 24 hours or so. She roosted there last night (26th) having spent the day there and up until 11am this morning (the latest point I have) that's where she was. Looking at the satellite picture you can see it's an area with lots of water channels (and I assume that may still be the case at this time of year) and so should be good fishing. It'll be interesting to see if she sticks around there any longer or moves on somewhere else.
Rothes meanwhile had another quietish day - she hung around Varela yesterday afternoon, then headed NW to near Sucujaque - right near the border with Senegal. She spent last night there and as of 8am this morning (27th) that's where she was.
Meanwhile here at Abernethy it's been raining nearly all day. That didn't stop me and the vols heading out to create some more deadwood. They were winching and I was chainsawing. When we got back to dry off I set them onto satellite data entry (so you can thank them for tonight's map) and I created a map of the deadwood we've done so far this winter - we've covered much more than I had thought - and it's looking good. We'll be back out again tomorrow (unless the pickups have floated away!).
More tomorrow.
