Lord of the flies

It’s a very old and rotten fence stab, probably made from and old telegraph pole. I had picked up the tail feathers of some unfortunate bird (curlew maybe) from the scene of crime and I stuck them in here whilst I stopped to take photo.

Something about it made me think lord of the flies. Don’t know what but there may also have been a faint song of duelling banjos in the distance.... I may be descending into a peculiar place!
