Creosote Galls

Creosote galls are created by little wasps and each type of gall is a different wasp species. There can be up to 20 different types on the same bush. Here in the Sonoran Desert it is a great example of biodiversity that is often overlooked but accessible to everyone. In Earth Camp learned a lot about the process of trail matinence and how discrete you must be. I learned a lot about the AZCC and the amazing work they do, and I would consider joining them if I get the opportunity.
