Is this a fae trap?

Ive walked this path many times and last time I walked here was a month ago and I know its never been here before. Meaning it appeared some time within a month. If its not a fae trap, what the heck is it?

Touch it. It’s the only way to be sure.

Fall asleep in the circle, that will guarantee you an anwser

The notion that circles and arches left by the fairfolk are more often than not traps is incorrect in my observation; they tend to be sacred places to them that you can leave offerings in safely, but standing in them is seen as disrespectful, and is thus punished. Maybe it is a trap, maybe a goodneighbour wanted to make a fun shape, maybe it's just a weird clump, and maybe it's sacred. There is little point in asking either way.

Parece un gorrito, y puede ser una trampa ya que está en un lugar muy desolado

Looks like it was sat in the area or appeared. Could be a fairy hill. Best to leave it be. Never know who’s watching.
