Galls on a leaf

thanks a million Orbea. :)

Now that you say it, I definitely see the walnuts in the background. I looked in 'Field Guide to Plant Galls of California and Other Western States' by Ron Russo, I think Eriophyes brachytarsus looks promising. Here are some other references.

walnut/willow.

What's the host? Willow? To be blunt, this is not even close to Callirhytis quercuspunctata which is an eastern gall on oak.
