Singing With Nightingales: Family
April 12, 2023 @ 1:30 PM - May 6, 2023 @ 5:30 PM
Bring your kids to the woods of Sussex for a beautiful afternoon of nature connection.
This May, join the Nest Collective team for games, music and folklore by the fireside and a trek into the nightingales’ habitat to hear their incredible song.
Spend the afternoon ambling through the bluebells of stunning ancient woodland as your host beguiles you with folklore and bird knowledge. Enjoy an afternoon of exploration and playfulness in nature with your whole family.
We will gather by the fireside for drinks and snacks before venturing into the woods once more to discover the rare nightingales’ habitat. Once there, we’ll gather gently close by and listen to their unmistakable courtship song.
Join us this May for a rare and thrilling journey in the springtime woodlands of Sussex.

The Nightingale
In this modern age, with biodiversity in decline and habitats being eroded, the Nightingale has become representative of all that we have to lose.
The Nightingale is a small, brown, unremarkable-looking bird, but it possesses one of nature’s finest singing voices. The bird winters in Africa but spends April to July mating and nesting in Europe and the Middle East. Worldwide, the population is healthy, but the numbers visiting England have declined so sharply that it is now on the UK’s Red List of species of the greatest conservation concern.
