Overview

EVENING WALK - NIGHTINGALES will hopefully be heard as we walk through and around the forests here.\nThere is a particularly good population of nightingales here and they should be in full song at this time of year.\nPark in Forestry commission Faggs Wood carpark. If you want to get some help identifying nightingales on this walk, a fantastic app that I use is called Merlin. You can download it from here: https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/download/.
