It reminds me of a coronet, with three 'points' and an encircling band. It stands, looms rather, on a knoll set back from the main road, and is readily visible to drivers and passengers alike, travelling between Invercargill and Riverton. One of the three driftwood trunks is riven, split by what might have been a lightning strike and could be thought to be carrying the message that's torched into the bandsaw blade that forms the 'tiara' on the structure, "Fracking Frackers", down and into the ground.
This description is the best I can do for now, as I've no photograph, but having just met the photographer from the Southland Express during her visit to Riverton to cover the up-coming seed saving feature, I know there'll be one available soon.
Til then, you'll have to rely on my less than spectacular powers of description, unless of course, you're planning to drive out an see it for yourself :-)

Didja receive skull and cross-bones fracking cartoon?
Looking now Suz...
Nope...?
Where should I look?
Maybe a re-send, I'd love to see it!
Damn...sent it to your house thru old-fashioned NZ Post...you would have loved it..a clipping from Dom Post coupla months ago.
Snail mail! I treasure snail mail. It will arrive, there's no reason to think it won't and that means I will get to enjoy the clipping and the experience of getting mail I can hold in my hand. Thanks, Suz.
Given I sent it 2 to 3 months ago, I don't share your optimism! Just been googling but with no luck...thinking back pretty sure it was in the SST.
Someone has intercepted my mail!
Bast*rds!
