This is the 3rd Series on these gorgeous Thorn Treehopper family. Mom move to another branch away from the large now Babies. The Males are very energetic right now, fluffing their wings and jumping/flying on each other and other branches but coming back to the one were the siblings, mostly females are. Females with the pointy head as Mom are not doing much.
