To A Skylark! (1001)

Join us for this early morning walk to discover and celebrate ‘the herald of the morn’ - the joyous song of the skylark, and more! The arable fields of the Chilterns are home to the ‘the morning lark’, a small bird which has been the subject of many works of literature from Chaucer to Shelley, and the music of Vaughan Williams and more. Our 4-mile walk takes us through the Chilterns countryside around Binfield Heath and Shiplake Row where the wide-open fields of Shiplake Farm are a perfect place to experience an ‘exultation’ of skylarks and to discover what makes this ‘ethereal minstrel’ so special.
