Birds are an important symbol of life in West Cornwall, featured on the county’s coat of arms, and a constant backdrop as they swoop, swirl and call across the cliffs, coastline, estuaries, hedgerows, farmland and gardens that make up our landscape. They are also at the centre of this summer’s exhibition at Penlee House, which runs from 7 May until 4 October.
Penlee House is a beautiful art gallery and museum, set within sub-tropical gardens, with a great café.
