We've found the same on our balcony a few times in recent weeks (#501),
so it's likely from the same source. Probably somebody above us had a
party and the guests weren't aware of how butts can drift onto others'
balconies instead of making it to the ground.
I've also noticed many butts on the grass in the center of the building
on the south side, where it appears that tenants (or their guests)
from a lower floor are tossing them off the edge.
