Produce a detailed written description of a dreary scene outside a wilderness clearing with crates and barrels.

Battered wooden crates and barrels are scattered throughout the area, creating a sort of obstacle course to walk through for any but small animals. It seems likely that they once held foodstuffs, but anything that remained has long since decomposed. The occasional chittering and the faint scrape of claws suggest that some critters have indeed made this place home.
