Description:
A cluster of hatched eggs attached by one end to the edge of a leaf. The leaf edge where the eggs were attached showed significant damage. There were tracks along the leaf possibly made by feeding larvae.
Habitat:
Spotted on the same eucalyptus tree as the adult beetle seen in the previous spotting.https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/2032977706
Notes:
Various species of leaf beetles seem to have different ways of attaching their eggs to their larval food source- some in rafts, some in clusters around stems and some like these in apparently disorganised clusters. Species ID Suggestions

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
A Mars-Pluto link on your birthday will encourage you to push yourself forward so the world knows who you are and what you can do. But make sure you really can do what you claim you can do – don’t exaggerate your skills and abilities.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20):
If a half-completed task cannot be finished immediately then it might be best to scrap it altogether. The sun’s exit from your sign this week means your time is up, for that project anyway. Now you must start something new, and more profitable.

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
Your speed of thinking and your confident way with words will put you way out ahead in almost all situations this year. But you also need to be aware of the fact that some people will always be more powerful than you. Try not to pick too many fights.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20):
Mercury in your sign, linked to both Mars and Jupiter, means there can be no more excuses: you know what needs to be done and you no longer have any excuses for not doing it. Focus on your No.1 goal and ignore everything else.

“Modern culture is suffering an epidemic of alienation, yet so many of us feel alone in our unbelonging, as if everyone else was inside of the thing that we alone are outside of.” ~ Toko-pa Turner, Belonging: Remembering Ourselves Home.
I existed my whole life as a nomad. I never felt I had strong foundations, roots, or a sense of belonging to any place.
In social occasions, I would often dread the question people would ask me out of courtesy and their attempt to make small talks, “Where are you from?”
I would find myself taking a long deep inhale, while pausing, to contemplate the complexity of their loaded question, which to any outsider, seems so simple.
