User's notes

They looked like flower buds. There were three patches of them. But then I saw the ants, and some out of their 'shells' and I thought they must be planthoppers, though I've not seen these green cases before nor so many. It was amazing. I can't remember whether they were on a gum or wattle. I might have been the hickory wattle.
