"As I did stand my watch upon the hill,
I looked toward Birnam and anon methought
The wood began to move."

 :no: sorry, but Birnam Wood did something to Dunsinane.............you must consult Shakespeare for this.

Again, tho' this will give the answer you want, the location we seek is south and west of both Birnam and Dunsinane... :)

The legend as recounted in the play Macbeth is that Birnam Wood marched upon Dunsinane............the trees of Birnam approached Dunsinane ( the trees came to Dunsinane..............trees that come  ;) (even if the good folks of SW Scotland cannot spell that properly )
