A scorching hot day to trek and hike, but if you're going to do it, Wakehurst Place is probably as good as any to do so. Through the various gardens and woodlands, Natalia and I managed to find the nature reserve and then marched a couple of miles to the kingfisher hide, where I photographed my first kingfisher. We were incredibly lucky to see it.The mansion itself wasn't laden with ornate rooms and furniture, but the walled garden to the side had some beautiful plants. We met Jena there and took a few more shots. After a while, the heat was too much and we called it a day. But with cooler weather, it's definitely a place worth exploring.
