I was with a friend yestorday evening in the park here in michigan. He was flying a remote controlled helicopter. Anyhow, something caught my eye.
Along a sidewalk that cuts thru the park, was a line of pine-cones probably 30 feet in length. It went back and forth on the sidewalk like a serpent, very irregular curves though. At the end (still on the sidewalk) was a circle of many more pine-cones. Not just a circle but it was filled in with more pinecones you see? 100 or so pinecones right up next to each other made a nearly perfect circle. Ontop of that was a layer of fine bark, ontop of that was some small sticks, and then some leaves at the very top. My thoughts::
1) If people did this, why? I was perplexed but my friend didn't care about it.
2) I really doubt the wind could of made something so precise.
3) Above the pine cone circle was just oak tree branches, so hadn't fallen down from there.
4) Theres only 1 pine tree in the park, and its on the opposite corner, a good 200 meters away.
5) Am I thinking about this too hard for what its worth?
