    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

It looks like an insect egg case formed of solidified foam. Can you contact a local entomologist by chance? Maybe even a professional yard maintenance person? If you want to keep it and see what hatches out that might be interesting.
 
Ya. You are right. This is like a foam and something like fluid inside it. I kept it in a safer place and waiting to see what comes out from this. I dont have any contact with any entomologist but yes i will ask with yard maintenance person surely. The size of this is big, around 2 times of hen egg. I am seeing it first time and am very surprised what is this..

It reminds me of a praying mantis egg sack. I’m not sure of the technical term... curious to see what comes of it.
