A Mystery!

I was startled to see this object hanging from a small branch on a tree. These foreign objects, either real or not, are out-of-place in nature...or should be!

  1. Wonder if it's a paint ball gun. Someone must have forgotten it.

  2. Now that is a mystery...it looks to have been there awhile. Makes me wonder what little cherub put it in that tree.

  3. It doesn't look like any real weapon - but it sure is ugly.

  4. Is it a gun from a watering system - or perhaps a toy - hate toy guns!

    Right, it's not attractive in this beautiful setting or anywhere else. I love the lichen on the tree.

    Thanks for comment on Monte Carlo DP. I wish you were there too!

    Hmm, interesting. Now that I think about it, I have a foreign object on a tree photo that I must post, too. I know what it is in that case, but I'm mystified by this.

  9. OMG.. I can see that the branch is broken. Someone had broken it by shooting on it with the help of the toy gun?? Oh I wonder. :P

  10. Ugly. Someone should take it down pronto! I wish people would realize that trees are living things and not posts. A while ago someone was selling these "tree faces" by the road then I started seeing them on trees in the countryside.

  11. perhaps an adult placed it there after finding it--thinking a child would come looking for it.
    we had fun with water guns when we were kids, but I don't know about this one.

  12. I would rather have the peaches hanging from my tree branches.
    Not exactly where one would expect to find a toy gun.

  14. Perhaps it was hung for a moment and then became forgotten.

  15. Great shot! I wonder like your other visitors if it had been accidently left behind by some kids playing (or perhaps, an older child was hiding it from his smaller sibling).

    Thanks for visiting my NorthBayPhoto blog.

  16. Someone was a naughty boy so mama put his toy on the tall branches so he can't reach it.

    Or the aliens are coming.
