MIMICRY

(c)GL2010 gerard lenting: mimicry in front of hotel.

This photo is taken just outside our hotel entrance. I spotted the 'walking stick' because it reminded me of something similar I saw on our trip in India (Goa). Now it was more easy to detect it than to find its name. Spent some time already on the net but without luck. So, anyone with suggestions??
