編輯的話
歡迎！繼上次用台語介紹了我陽台的四種鳥
朋友（參閱 Vol. 11）之後，小編在這一卷裡出
個謎題，請大家猜一猜。
每到初夏，陽台的構樹果子一顆顆熟紅了。
那麼，這些甜美的果子到底進了誰的肚子呢？
歡迎參閱「 Report No. 111 構樹果子熟了，誰
? 」。
最後， 小編仍然希望人們在看到本刊所載的 照片後也願意在他們的花園，陽台，或窗台上
種些樹。給樹澆水並不麻煩；觀察是如此有趣。
他們說：「如果把花園和各種植物帶回城市， 動物們也將回來」。在此祝大家父親節快樂！

Palimara Alstonia (Alstonia scholaris) puts out new leaves round and round on my balcony in Taichung, Taiwan.

久後，其植株已超過原來的植穴或安全島限 制，造成馬路及安全島隆起迸裂的後果。此
外其枝幹脆弱，易遭風折危害。我的陽台有 一棵，是帶細毛的種子被風吹來，而後發芽 長成的。

Catching a glimpse
Pycnonotus sinensis)
驚鴻一瞥，白頭翁阿肥
The Balcony Observer’s Report 陽台觀察者報告
A Light-vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus sinensis) called A-Pui came to my my balcony in the morning in Taichung, Taiwan. The season with small fruits on my balcony has passed, therefor A-Pui seems to less come here. Unexpectedly, she suddenly flew to my balcony in the morning. She took a brief rest on a branch of blue jacaranda (Jacaranda mimosifolia). She showed her attractive posture and looked at me.
I just had a camera on my hand. I was planning to use it to photograph some insects. I quickly switches the exposure parameters and took the picture before her leaving. Even with only a short pancake lens, I was satisfied. I like the image that she stayed there with many green leaves around.
陽台有小果子的季節過了，白頭翁阿肥最近似乎也因此比較少 出現。沒想到早上她突然飛來，停在藍花楹枝條上，擺出她的招 牌賣萌姿勢看我。
手上剛好有相機，本來是打算近拍昆蟲用的，我迅速切換曝光 條件，趕在她起飛前拍下這驚鴻一瞥。即使只有短的餅乾鏡頭， 我還是拍得心滿意足。我喜歡有許多綠葉圍繞著她的影像。
