Does anyone know what has happened to BBC Southern American correspondent Wayra Davis? Have not seen him report from that area for some time.

If you mean Wyre Davies, then going by his Twitter account, he's still with the BBC. His bio says "South America, Middle East and Wales".

Wyre. Pronounced Wirrah.

Don't know where he is, but he's still on the BBC World countdown occasionally.

Isn’t he just a general uk ‘news correspondent’ now? He was in the UK for reporting of the Manchester Ariana Grande terror attack, recently and the Grenfell Tower fire incident.

Wyre Davies finished his posting in South America in March 2017, and Katy Watson has since taken his place as South America correspondent, based in Sao Paulo,

Wyre has been working for BBC Wales Investigates recently and was reporting a general news correspondent too.

I heard Wyre presenting "Good Evening Wales" alongside Mai Davies on BBC Radio Wales last week - very good too I thought.
