These are predator insects. Good things. They eat aphids, but maybe other
small plant sucking insects too.

Al replied as well. He thinks this was discussed on rgo and/or abpo in the
past, but he can't recall what it was.
What I find strangest about it is the perfect symmetry. Nature is
something else!

Diana sent me the photo, and I seem to recall seeing something similar
from a parasitic wasp of some sort....

Anyone know what this is? The photo appeared in yesterday's local
paper. I
tracked down the photographer and asked her to send it to me so I could
post
it here. She does not grow orchids, and someone told her the little
*balls
on strings* were spider eggs.
