The Birks of Aberfeldy

Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

"The Birks of Aberfeldy" is a song lyric written for a pre-existing melody in 1787 by Robert Burns. He was inspired to write it by the Falls of Moness and the birch (the Scots word for it being birks) trees of Aberfeldy during a tour of the Scottish Highlands with his friend William Nicol. Today — because of its beauty and its association with the poem — the Birks of Aberfeldy attracts sightseers and walkers from around the UK, Scotland and beyond. The ravine has been fitted with footpaths, bridges and other aides to accessibility. A statue of Robert Burns, composing his famous poem, sits at the entrance to walk. When visiting on the 24th of November 2022, the statue of Robert Burns seems to have been removed from his seat at the start of the walk.
