Snails only one one side of the obelisk. Possibly it’s the shadiest side, or maybe someone clears them off the other sides.

A first for me! Very excited.
This beautiful little guy or girl was just passing through on its way to warmer wintering grounds most likely. I have checked many times as have dozens of other interested birders but there have been no further sightings.
This is the same species of Owl which they recently saved from the Rockefeller Christmas tree:

@hopperdude215 Please tell me you know what this nymph is! On Wyethia, and I'm pretty sure I frightened away an ant that was feeding from its backside when I first saw it.
Looks (to me, the non-expert) like maybe a Three-cornered Alfalfa Treehopper, though none have been seen in this county on iNat... https://www2.ipm.ucanr.edu/highlights/2020/Can_a_pesky_treehopper_be_foiled_because_its_growth_is_regulated_by_temperature/

Big mahalo to @damontighe for shining his UV light on this beauty. The round things are likely diverticula of the digestive system, being pushed against its exoskeleton by a load of eggs.
Kudos to @nmcnear for finding this explanation on BugGuide.
