Things you find on the road?

An immense, golden holy symbol of one of the active gods, of a size probably five feet wide by ten feet long, half imbedded into what was until recently a smooth and well-cropped expanse of turf. The holy symbol rests inside a recently-formed indentation in the ground, about a foot deep, that is shaped suspiciously like a five-foot by ten-foot holy symbol of one of the active gods.
The head of a sheep (that apparently didn't move out of the way fast enough) protrudes from underneath one edge of the holy symbol, tilted at an angle against the incline of the indentation.

Birds chirp. The wind wafts gently. There are hardly any other sounds.
We ignore it and go around, continuing onward down the road. WE WON'T BE RAILROADED! We scoff your obvious plot point! We want to find the most delicious custard in all of Greyhawk! ;)
 



Something Mary Gentle-esque? A corpse in a cage or gallows reciting its crimes?
A Hitchcockian flock of birds silently watching you pass by?
The prints of an enourmous clawed beast crossing the trail then disappearing abruptly - (Hyppogriffe that flew away)?
Or ,as happend to me last weekend, the sound of something large but out of sight and moving rapidly away in the woods - probably deer but I'm not ruling out Owlbear.
