    Berkeley has two botanical gardens, both of which are excellent for 
    plants and sometimes for birds:  The UC Berkeley Botanical Garden and 
    the Tilden Regional Park Botanical Garden. Which one is mentioned below? 
      We really do need to know each time which garden was visited. Thanks.
