You need a theme song:
It was a hit in 1947 by Louis Jordan, the unstoppable master of jump-jive jazz. It has nothing to do with travelling, or even with the birds, but I couldn't think of another fowl song. Maybe someone else can come up with a tune of equal irrelevance?

Irrelevance is my speciality. Here is the earworm to end them all
PS. There are plenty of pleasant towns and villages in the south-east (Kent and Sussex) with pleasant, if unspectacular, countryside to walk through. Those on train lines from London can be affected as flanner describes, but Rye may be worth a look.

pre covid, I would have said come to Cornwall in June and you would have been able to overdose on all sorts of fancy fowl at the Royal Cornwall Show, normally held annually over the first full weekend in June. Buses run there from all over Cornwall so no problems with transport. However with covid things are a lot trickier and I wouldn't want anyone to plan a journey round it and it not to happen. And our public transport isn't bad either - Penzance and Falmouth would be fine places to stay in with lots of accommodation and excursion opportunities including, in Falmouth, by boat.
