I had a little difficulty and confusion when I wanted to explain about this discovery of mine, if I'm not mistaken this is a bagworm, at first I thought that bagworms and cocoons were the same, but after I searched for information on Google, it turned out that bagworms and cocoons were different, usually bagworms are the appearance of a caterpillar house made using silk and leaves, the caterpillar will spend part of its life in this portable house before becoming a cocoon.

But what is interesting here is the shape of the house which looks like a fairy house if we look at it from a close distance, I can say the size of this caterpillar's house is very small, usually this house will be built on leaves or behind leaves but I often find it behind mango leaves.When I found this bagworm, I immediately tried to photograph it using a macro lens, and I managed to get results that looked very detailed and satisfying.
Okay everyone, here are some pictures of bagworms.
