Gall Midge at Work

Looking for a photo yesterday, I came across a few Creosote Galls in the making. When finished, the galls will be twice this size and the green will dry out to brown. A tiny Gall Midge (Asphondylia aurinila) is the architect behind this cool little ball.
The soft background is courtesy of my Canon 180 Macro.

I found these and several other Galls on Sonoran Scrub Oak leaves yesterday. (CLICK HERE) for my first sighting in 2009. Cool, aren’t they?!
