During the current pandemic I've been walking places a lot more than usual and as a consequence have seen more of a modern phenomenon that both baffles and annoys me. The culprits are the dog owners who seem to scoop up the excreta of their pooches into plastic bags only to then attach those bags to the branches of trees (presumably the first tree they encounter?) Why? Surely if you so lazy and anti-social that you can't be arsed to take your shit-bag home then why bother to scoop it up in the first place? Maybe there's some new religious cult that I'm unaware of and these things are some kind of offering, or maybe passers by are highlighting the issue of bags being left in the woods? Whatever the reason it's an appalling habit.
