Here’s my Perpetual Journal art showing a Queen Butterfly 10 minutes after it emerged (eclosed) from its chrysalis! My latest blog post has my photos of a Queen emerging 😍https://paulaborchardt.substack.com/p/butterfly-visitors-part-2

The heavy wind this week had us replacing a piece of siding that blew off the house. Moving a ladder around bushes, I found these galls. Clearly empty, but I wonder what #insect made these. I suspect a wasp of some kind, because they are commonly seen on this side of the house.
One is a chokeberry bush, the other is a Virginia Sweetspire.
Any help identifying these is appreciated!

An adult leafhopper, likely from the genus Bothrogonia, commonly known as an orange sharpshooter.
The specific color variant in the image, the "Orange Sharpshooter", has been observed in locations such as Malaysia and Phuket, Thailand. #insectphotographie #insect #Phuket
