 I saw this coil of barbed wire near a path I often walk the dog on quite some time ago, and just happened to bring my camera this time. I was going out to find an entry for this challenge, it just happened.

The reason this is a Barbed Perch is because the white spots on the wire is bird poop.

My original entry, which I suspect would not have done as well as this one:
