Unknown interest......

No idea what this is but it did look kind of interesting
Quite different. Great shot of whatever it is!

Hi Susie. This looks to me like a rose bedeguar gall or moss gall. This develops as a chemically induced distortion on roses, caused by the parthenogenetic hymenopteran gall wasp (Diplolepis rosae).

Very interesting capture. Great focus makes it look like a sea animal.
