Thank you. :)) I wanted them to be aliens. I am suggesting that it is cocoon of ugly moths, thanks to Burini. I found two of these cocoons on the tree. They are light and fluffy. I opened one of them and had yellow eggs, but the wind snatched it from my hand and I could not find them among the leaves on the ground.
