Squire’s Castle in “3D”

Here are a few photos I took of Squire’s Castle using the Seene photo app. (Use your mouse, touch pad, or, if on a smart phone, tilt the phone to alter perspective on each photo.)

Squire’s Castle is in the North Chagrin Reservation of the Cleveland Metroparks in Willoughby Hills, Ohio.

At The Icy Eastlake Pier

We visited the Eastlake Ohio seawall and fishing pier this morning. The temperature was 11 degrees and it was cloudy and breezy. The walk to the pier was treacherous because of ice. However, the Lake Erie water near the pier is unfrozen due to the warm water discharge from the Eastlake power plant. It’s normally a good place to see birds when it’s cold; unfortunately, it was even too cold for the birds. We saw few ducks and a handful of gulls, all which were out of the range of my long lens. We did see a lesser black-backed gull among a few herring gulls. Otherwise, it was an uneventful visit. There was some steam coming off the water but it only made the scene look even more frosty. Here’s a photo. (Click on image for a larger view.)
