A Tree Spirit

I saw this creature right out in the open in Williamsburg, VA last weekend. It looks like a fairy home, but it's not. Take note of the "fingers." This critter is a Tree Spirit, a devious, dangerous and hungry predator. He must be really old or maybe even dead, though, because these guys typically live in the forest for safety and disguise. If a curious creature were to investigate the opening, thinking it a fairy door, would soon find itself grabbed and devoured.
