What is this thing? (Photo enclosed.)
I do a lot of walking, and it seems like every week or two I'll see one of these wires lying on the sidewalk. Today I saw two of them several blocks apart. They're perhaps six to eight inches long.

What are these things? Where do they come from? They've always got that little minor corkscrew pattern, so there's got to be some reason why I keep seeing them.

Possibility, but there's no dog tracks nearby.

And thanks. I worked hard on that bunny.

Possibly, but I see them in different locations. Yesterday, the two I saw were on a walk that was about four miles from my office, and I've also seen them near my office.

I can't tell for sure on my phone, but I agree. It looks like an aerial clamp that twists around old steel drops. We wrecked out a ton of them on our last FTTH project. I need to look on a bigger screen to be sure.
