An ant's nest gall on a eucalyptus tree. The ants cause the tree to create woody tissue which is used by the ants as their nest, riddled with tunnels. Dry, warm, custom built and protected from predators. A room with a view, though the ants probably don't appreciate that part of their premium position.
