Green eggs

Anyone know what these are please? Found them today on my Potentilla plant..

 

Nobody know??? :(

 

They look like caterpillar eggs to me.

 

I had a look, but none of my books hve this sort of approach. I looked up potentilla specific probs, and no joy, and then leaf related probs - no joy, then searched the web - no joy there either, so dn't answer! Hope someone else has some luck! :rolleyes:

 

Was there any ham with them? :D

There are several butterflies that have pale green eggs but the pictures show them as singles, not in that beautifully geometric pattern!

 

I looked all over the web too, and also thought butterfly... but there's hardly any pics. I'm not moving them, I'll have to wait and see if they hatch!

 

Not quite butterflies! I saw these hatch on Saturday, and this is what they are now... what are they?

 

Shield bugs! Garden safari: Shield Bugs

 

Well Done Frogs...

 

Wow! I've never seen that colour shield bug I don't think..only the green ones. Cool! :D

They looked like eggs with eyes on Saturday, sweet!
