Pareidolia: twig or claw?

This odd twig had me doing a double-take, as I wandered past its moss-spattered fallen tree trunk, my aging eyes playing tricks on me in the fading light: it may just be me, but I could have sworn, for just a split-second, that there was a monster’s claw clutching the wood,  just waiting to slither out and reveal its full, horrifying self to me…

*Shot on a Canon 6d 20.2mp full-frame dSLR using a Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 IS L lens with settings at ISO-800, aperture at f/4, spot metering mode and an exposure time of 1/100 seconds*
