Well caught! Yes, wonderful perches, and some of the older ones so elaborate. I love to see a whole row of them together, and the shadows they cast on their buildings.
ReplyDeleteThat always works as my poor man's terrace. I love to read out on the fire escape. Except for the tourists who try to take my photo. I hide behind my book for those.
