Kirstenbosch

A lovely walk at Kirstenbosch in the late afternoon.

A curious robin who came very close
The beautiful statues

Photographing the bees
Getting a uber home

Exploring Kirstenbosch Gardens and the new tree walk

Highlights of our morning in Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens included ...

Getting to experience the Boomslang Tree Walk for the first time, high up in the canopy. It's been beautifully designed and made.
Getting to photograph a lesser double collared sunbird. So glad I lugged my 400 mm lens, it was perfect for the job.
The extremely cute baby guineafowl.
Drinking the water from the spring at Lady Anne Barnards Bath. Thanks Chrisèl, I've never thought to do that before! It tasted absolutely delicious!
A delicious red cappuccino to finish off (a "cappuccino" made from rooibos tea.)

Lesser Double collared Sunbird - which I've wanted to photograph for ages!

The Boomslang Tree Walk.

Lady Anne Barnards Bath

A delicious red cappuccino to finish off. Not complete without plenty of honey and cinnamon!

Kirstenbosch

Jo, Matthew and I had a fun afternoon ambling through Kirstenbosch. This surely must be one of my favourite places in the world. The guinea fowls, flowers and spiders put on a great display for us.
