Rock balancing in Corsica

We've just returned from 12 days in Corsica, where I was surprised to see lots of rock balancing everywhere we went on mountain and coastal trails. The phenomenon was so widespread that it must be a bit like the throwing of stones onto cairns by the paths in the Scottish hills (although probably not as polarising as that activity in terms of love/hate!).

As I know at least one of my friends will be interested, here are some pics of the more amusing or artful examples.

I really liked the artful simplicity of this one - it looked just like a little figure who'd nodded off beside the path!

No - the camera wasn't squint - this really was on a sloping rock on a steep hillside!

This was by a river at the bottom of the Spelunca Gorge and, I presume, must have been placed there this year, after the Spring meltwaters had receded.
