Palmetto and Mistletoe Growing in Tree

I got this shot of Palmetto and Mistletoe competing for a prime growing site in Ocean Springs, Mississippi.  How’s that for a foothold?  In a tree about thirty feet over, there was a spider web about six feet by six feet stretching between the gaps in the branches of a huge oak about twenty-five feet off the ground.  It appeared to be well-used since it had multiple mends.  I would have loved to have gotten a picture.
