Three That Got Away
These three fish were outside in the parking lot. When the wind blows, they move. There are other sculptures to see as well. I really enjoyed these.

Above the parking lot of the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh twirl three nearly 15-foot-long, 400-pound bass. The fish-out-of-water sculptures whirl on poles more than 14 feet in the air as the wind blows, keeping watchful eyes on museum visitors. Named "Al, Mo, and Oh: The Three That Got Away," for the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio Rivers that converge in Pittsburgh, this piece of public art was designed by Elizabeth and Chris Siefert, and came ashore on July 29, 2005.
