What Am I?
Can you guess what this is? Unfortunately I can’t type the answer in tiny letters upside down so here’s a spoiler.
It is the home of a bag moth. She left the shelter of her mother’s bag when she was a very small grub and spun a bag around herself. As she grew she made the bag bigger, and she attached bits of sticks and leaves etc. to disguise the bag. To eat she pulls her top part out of the bag. I suspect the stripped bark on the rose stem is her work. She can also move to another place, dragging her bag. When the time comes the male, who is able to leave his bag and fly, will mate with her through the bottom of her bag. She will lay her eggs and die without ever leaving her bag. I’m not sure if this is silly or just sad.
