Do you know what this is? I noticed it on several brier bushes, so I wondered...

It looks vaguely like a strange plant called Dodder. The scientific name might be Cuscuta. It's hard to say.

I'm not quite sure... As far as I know, the dodder grows on any plant.. while I saw this only on brier bushes..

That's what I thought, too. It looks a little small for that, though.
