The Balcony Garden is the ideal spot for local bird watching. We live on the 3rd floor of our building, and the balcony faces a lot with overgrown plants. There are large trees perfect for perching, and small trees that are seasonally filled with treats for the local birds.
I always love seeing the Parrots enjoying a snack in our neighbor’s tree!

This photo is a bit intense! There is a Western Blue Bird in the foreground, a House Finch to its right on the same tree, and a Hawk on the telephone pole in the background.
Cedar Waxwings – A rare visitor!
Hummingbirds hang out by the Balcony Gardens all year long.
I truly love photographing them!I truly love photographing them!
