The layers are near the cattle in a weedy, overgrown pasture complete with brush, fallen limbs and dead trees. Every morning I walk out to let the birds out of their house. Every morning I see this and think, “Oh No! Is that a dead cow? How did it get there? What could have happened?”
Then I remember. It’s just an old log.
Every morning. Every. Stinking. Morning. I should probably have a cup of coffee before I do my chores. And I should burn that old log.

LOL, I have one of those too, and you’re right that’s the first thing that pops into your head. We also have a gob of old yellowed greenhouse plastic that looks like our sheep. Kind of low on the priority list to move those things right now 😦
I could go on and on about things that need to be done but other things that need to be done first. On and on. And on.
Yup, I have a similar illusion – a bush down the bottom field has a bush sticking out that I keep thinking is a cougar. Just about every morning. I guess I could prune the bush. But it gives a good adrenalin rush, almost as good as caffeine (not quite though).
That would do it. Once in a while somebody catches a bobcat on a trail cam around here. They are few and far between and pretty shy.
