A green maple leaf covered in red gall mites, also called maple bladder gall mites.

A green maple leaf is prominently featured, with numerous small, round, red protrusions on its surface. These are maple bladder galls, created by the presence of gall mites. The leaf displays a typical maple shape with pointed lobes and serrated edges. The galls are scattered unevenly across the leaf, contrasting with the bright green background. In the background, out-of-focus greenery is visible, likely other trees and grass, suggesting an outdoor setting.
