Nature Walk & Dawn Chorus with Breakfast

21st May 2025

An early morning walk for the spring bird dawn chorus in the Stubbings Estate and Thicket. Enjoy bird song at this special time of year when the migrating birds join our resident species. Wild Cookham ornithologist, Brian Clews can guide you through the various sounds and sights of this early morning. If the weather permits, Brian will be delighted to point out any insects that may be on the wing at this time of the day.

After the walk, enjoy a light English breakfast and a hot drink on the Café decking area, where you can discuss the morning’s highlights with fellow nature enthusiasts.
