strange 'fruit' on eucalyptus tree

[gavilan]

There is a line of mature eucalyptus trees here ... I noticed this morning that on one of the trees is a strange 'fruit' ... about 2 inches diameter, shiny bright red on the top half, pale greenish below and very light so it does not hang down but is growing upwards ... it looks a bit like a small apple ... and reminds me of oakapples ... (I dont know how to use photobucket I could include a foto) ... ?anyone know what it is and/or what is growing inside it?!

Hi gavilan,
No need for Photobucket...........either use ......... https://postimage.org/

Or the Forum attach facility................

Sounds like a Red Cap Gum...

Enrique: I clicked on forum attachments and got the message 'error' ... I tried postimage.org and another message appeared 'firefox prevented you from installing this software ... '' ...
