Double-dipping for Six Word Saturday and Ragtag Daily Prompt: Pumpkin

Fruitless?
Situated in Oberotterbach, close to the French-German border, there is the Waldgeisterweg, a shortish woodland path lined with bizarre or whimsical goblins and gnomes and imps which the artist Volker Dahl has carved from old broken trees and roots.
At one point there is this sign on a tree with a prompt in the local vernacular: “Oy, why don’t you look up!”
And a few metres higher up there is this sign:
Wood kobolds, acorns and a penguin
A wood kobold watching over the path and checking who is coming into his domain.
I should have put a scale next to these acorns – they were carved out of wood and as big as a foot stool.
More kobolds carved from living trees.
And a penguin in the making.
