Here are a few dozen eggs I just found.
Mark this location! Place a marker flag, so that you can easily find these leaves again. Photographs taken every every few days will document color change as the embryos develop. Soon, a larvae form of parent insect will emerge. I am hoping for a series of photographs.

I would suggest that these images also and discussion be weaved into a Main Discussion for more to view.
"Re-direction" post in in either Main Photography Discussion, or Photo Gallery easily get pushed to page 2, then page 3, and quickly become buried, lost to interested photographers.

Neither image is of butterfly eggs. Keep an eye on them to see what hatches.

When younger, and I could see some detail like this with the naked eye, I would find these all the time. Not super close, but, close enough.
Of course, we lived in the country (Southern Iowa), and it was no great feat to venture somewhere on the various lots to find little clutches of eggs on leaves, stems, and like the one shot, on pieces of still equipment.

Simply amazing, Thank You all for sharing.
