They're back
It's been a rough summer for creosote bush gall-hunting locally - poor rainfall this summer meant no fresh leaves. I tried to find some for the September gall week project but they were a no-show. A good rain on September 1st and a couple of following showers mid-month have produced a flush of leaves and galls locally, though. Asphondylia pila galls are abundant, while A. silicula, A. clavata and A. fabalis (all leaf galls) are fairly common as well.
