May 24 - Boston Mills

Gray Squirrel

Eastern Bluebird

The second leg of our trip consisted of an interlude at Boston Mills.  This seems to be an area that gets a lot of human traffic that the critters don't seem to mind.  There was a pair of bluebirds taking turns building a nest in a cavity in a stump, right in a small patch of land in the middle of the parking lot.  We also had a squirrel performing for us.  There is a great view of the Cuyahoga River here, as well as of the bridges just to the south.
This area will always remind me of the scout hike in 1999, when we rested on the benches outside the Boston Store.
