Singing Like Larks: A Celebration of Birds in Folk Songs This charming volume explores the fascinating relationship between birds and traditional folk music in the British Isles. Andrew Millham weaves together mesmerising lyrics, folklore, and nature writing to uncover the reasons behind the prevalence of birds in folk songs. As the melodies and lyrics of these songs fade with time, it is essential that we preserve and pass them down to future generations. Singing Like Larks is a valuable repository of bird-related folk songs, offering a joyous celebration of song, the seasons, and our love of birds.
