Hey Gallfriends! Today starts Project Gall Week 2022! Sep 3-11!

Starts today! Be sure to join the project and add your gall observations https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/gall-week-2022
I'm going to challenge myself to get as many different gall species in the Bay Area as I can! (While working 4 days this week (ha ha!). And get some new gall species! Today I started in Contra Costa County at Mt Diablo SP to pick up Urchin Gall and Coral Gall (both uncommon on blue oak):
Urchin gall (attaches to the leaf)

Coral gall (attaches to the stem)

Tomorrow it's the Livermore Valley area of Alameda County to get various additional oak and willow galls and some on sage.
What are your gall adventures looking like?
