Scranton Flats, Cuyahoga River 16 February

When most of Lake Erie is frozen over, spots on the Cuyahoga are often clear. The thermal pollution warms the water, and the ducks and other birds have a place to land and swim. Still, corpses of those who either froze, or starved to death are seen.

mostly red breasted mergansers, common winter visitors/migrants

Sunlight did not help this one, on Scranton in Cleveland, a dog care business.

A local television news story mentioned these placards/posters appearing in Cleveland on vacant commercial buildings.  I wonder, whether this is nation wide.  I suppose the supporters of American Gestapo are none too pleased.  Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi as a rapster uses the name Kid Cudi.  As a painter, he is Scotty Ramon. These posters are signed Scotty Ramon.
