Balcony Bliss

 

I am currently rediscovering the joys of a balcony. After living on the ground floor for the last half a dozen years, I am happy to be strung at treetop level again. 


Maroon chrysanthemums brightening my balcony 


Though I miss the expansive garden from our last home, including our backyard and veggie patch, the simplicity of container gardening has its own charm.


Parakeets are frequent visitors


Most days the first neighbours I see and hear are the feathered varieties. With open skies and a multitude of trees facing one balcony, birding comes as an in-house advantage.


A glimpse of the greens through the frosted window 


While the second balcony faces the road and a row of apartments, my greens give me ample opportunities to enjoy the space.


Republic Day flypast 


And on Republic Day, we viewed some amazing flypast by our armed forces since those beauties zoomed past right in front of our balcony.
