Percy's friends have all left different parts of London for holidays in different nesting sites in different countries across Europe. Percy's friends all enjoy different foods because they're all different bird breeds and will be spending their holidays doing different activites. If you can work out who's who, you should be able to find where Percy has gone.

Thanks to IceColdUK for beta testing the puzzle
If you calculated the old co-ordinates, entering these on geocheck will provide you the new co-ordinates. Only the final calculation has changed.
For the purposes of this puzzle, please consider Spain and the Canaries as separate countries. "Neighbouring" countries are the next country east/west in the puzzle so Spain is neighbouring Canary Island and Switzerland, Czech Republic is neighbouring Switzerland and Bulgaira.
Congrats to Pja_cz for FTF and King of the Pundits for STF
