Annual EWG Dawn Chorus walk around Hanwell Meadows, Long Wood and Warren Farm @ The Fox Inn
May 4 @ 04:30 – 06:30

Join Sean and all the other early birds for EWGs annual Dawn Chorus walk to experience the wonder of morning birdsong for an early, invigorating and wholesome start to the day.
You’ll learn why birds sing and how to identify the various species as they start singing in predictable order as the day breaks.

Meet at 04:30 (yes, really!) outside The Fox Inn, Green Lane, Hanwell, W7 2PJ. Then we’ll cross the canal into Hanwell Meadows, and down into Long Wood as dawn rises. Finishing on Warren Farm to hear our Skylarks sing.

All are welcome, but we’ll be walking cross country with some navigation of stiles and uneven ground, so sturdy walking boots are recommended. If you have binoculars, bring them, but not necessary.

Beginner nature enthusiasts are very welcome!
