Ever seen these blobs of foam and thought it was a frog's nest?  Well - they are actually the nests of Spittle Bugs and if you remove some of the foam, you will find the bug inside.  (as children we used to think it was 'snakespit'... ha ha)

    You are a mine of information Maggie. So often we learn something new from your pics. Lol

    So that's what they look like! Had a nest like this at home a while back and could see the movement inside. Lovely, crystal clear shot!
