I think that the worm will be yours, Paul, no birds out there early on this morning. With the takeover of the cell phone for our communications, we will be producing generations not knowing what those poles and wires were used for.

Again I like your use of contrasting colors and, of course, the visual subject narrative of your photograph.

Paul, you've once again chosen a multi-explainable title for this intriguing photograph. Intriguing because of its shadowed areas. However, I assume you meant the title in a figurative way, rather than the literal one.

I had to do a triple-take, realizing I was seeing a fog bank, only identified by the very tops of high hills. Catching it at this moment was very opportune.
