The Birds, a Sign of Spring


Far from Alfred Hitchcock's movie "The Birds" but within walking distance of where we live in False Creek, is the Olympic Plaza's own version of "The Birds". Myfanwy MacLeod's sparrows overlook the bustling plaza, which was the hub of the Athlete's Village during the 2010 Winter Olympics. 

The giant 4.5-metre birds keep an eye out for crumbs from Terra Food bakery, as they sit are across from each other on the plaza, which has now become the heart of "The Village", a favourite spot for cyclist, walkers, strollers, joggers, coffee lovers and bird watchers.
