Sinking Cones

Ok, so there is this cone. One of those orange road-cones.
I don't know what else to call them. Anyway, there is one
that's been sitting by the bushes, on the ground, in the
dirt, by the entrance to our apartment complex. And I
swear, every time I pass, the cone has made its way deeper
and deeper into the dirt. When I passed by a few minutes
ago, only the very tip was sticking up. It really does
raise the question of WHO is slowly but surely burying this
cone into the dirt? Is it nature? Or perhaps some of the
more advanced woodland creatures harbor some unexplicable
hatred towards the unnatural orange color of the cone, and
are trying to dispose of it. And I guess they are smart to
do it gradually, so that the road-guys don't miss it.
Either way, the situation seems extremely mysterious to me.
