Oddities found while hunting

[enuf]

I’ve autographed more than one aspen tree in our travels.
Personally have never found anything weird in the woods while hunting, but a buddy found a Winchester lever gun that a tree had grown around over the years at the current Osage Western Wall WMA north of Pawhuska. He cut out the section and made it into a coffee table. He’s passed away now and have no idea where that went.

My youngest and I found this about 5-6 years ago, still not sure what it is? Guessing some kind of cover for a pipe maybe? Miles from any town, several hundred yards from any old homeplace.

Sun dial base? Mom an dad had one similar and that’s what they used it for.

I found an old trap in the Cherokee refuge a few years back. It was fairly big with teeth on the jaws.
Found an old grave in the woods while squirrel hunting when I was a kid.

I found one of the big heavy duty wheel chocks that some national guard guy left in gruber. Found Ruger branded flashlight. Found a really nice made in the USA blaze orange and fur balaclava thinking. It was was very close to a pile a toilet paper. So somebody lost it gather up after dropping off the coffee. It is super warm.

I found a truck door hinge the other day on my own land. That is at least a half mile from any road and on property that has not been developed since statehood. I assume somebody dropped it off a four wheeler or something at one point

Found a 2" uncapped pipe sticking out of the ground next to my house's foundation.

Well, here is the latest find. Found lying is some wet oak leaves with a little brush around it. Don’t know what to think of this one.

You definitely win for the weirdest thing found in the woods. I hope that isn't some kind of voodoo thing.

I told my wife I am not bringing it home just in case it’s a fertility idol.
