Looks very similar to one posted here on 2 May:
I think I can see the long antennae shadows in your images although the antennae are hard to see.
Identified as an Outer Barklouse, not a pest of fruit or foliage.
any idea? Peach tree in SE Michigan at my parents place. Also the peaches all seems to be emitting sap?
Looks like peach leaf curl to me. Copper spray in the fall and in the spring. I had to do this to one of my peach trees on year. Check the package of copper liquid spray to give you more info. Mine has not come back after I sprayed them twice.

First on is OFM maybe what is damaging peaches too. You should be able to find the grub in the shoot. Classic flagging.
Second is peach leaf curl likely residual from the spring. Some pepile remove the affected leaves hoping to reduce pressure. At this point laves are established so it shouldn’t spread.
Looks like early fb to me. Only way to know would be to leave it. I would just remove it
Thanks, yeah I did… Have seen lots of photos of it here and other places, certainly looked suspicious. Just have not ever dealt with it personally and wanted to make sure others agreed. Again, thanks.
That is probably from oriental fruit moth (worms in the peaches). Some of the tips look bent over and that is also probably OFM - they drill into the shoot tips. The bubbly things are definitely peach leaf curl.
It looks like they are going to need to be doing some sprays if they are going to get any good peaches.
Thank you. Any recommendation for the fruit moth? I think I’ve read the peach leaf curl Might as wait until end of season to spray.
Look at the spray schedules in the guides section … probably too late for this year for these peaches but you can control things better next year.

I wonder if someone can help me with a problem where a large part of my squash vine suddenly stopped flourishing and wilted, and upon closer inspection, at the base of the stem the healthy light green herbaceous stem has turned into a white, rockhard, woody/sclerotic material that looks like it no longer has any fluid or sap in it. And it just snapped in half. So it looks likeSome disease process damaged the stem hardening it and preventing nutrients and water from flowing. The specific Cultivar of squash is tromboncino, Which I selected because they say it’s supposed to be resistant to squash bugs that bore inside of the stems.
Swallowtail babies! 
They will decimate the dill.
Cucumber beetle should be the first culprit to consider in any squash or melon plant demise. I don’t grow any such things any more due to those pests. They carry a disease called bacterial wilt which does in the plants.
Many of my squash stems look like that eventually. I would still look for vine borer by slicing the stem lengthwise.

If only Oriental fruit moths looked so beautiful I wouldn’t mind them eating my fruits as much.

I would guess a leafhopper nymph.

Too fat for thrip; leafhopper nymph is a good guess. If leafhopper, will scuttle to opposite leaf side when disturbed, and if old enough, will hop.
