First time I have ever seen eggs like this.

I meant all the snaky things.

That's what I'm talking about Andy, they are eggs. Laid in a tube of protective jell. But as to what laid them there, I have no clue and have not been able to find anything on line like them. Mike may know what they are.

Those might be toad eggs, but still a pretty cool shot.

Just came across this, yea late as usual. Frog eggs tend to be individual eggs surrounded by a gel sac laid in a blob-type mass. Toads however lay tube like gel-sacks with many eggs in each tube. So my best guess is as Viking posted Toad eggs. Toads live on land but their tadpole stage is still in water.

That last photo reminds me of The Shadow Over Innsmouth....

I actually located this thread to post these pics. Watching my Humm-bird feeder this AM I noticed that the birds were having a fit. They kept trying to land and would zoom off without doing so. Looked closer and saw something waving at them trying to grab them. An even closer look found this guy perched on the beam over the feeder trying to grab the feast of his life

Nice shots!

He was looking for a large breakfast.

Found this little girl on the front of the restaurant I frequent.

 

[Crimea_River]

[Airframes]

Just a little larger than a quarter Andy. Sorry Terry. Thanks Wayne.

 

[Gnomey]

Good shot!

 

[Vic Balshaw]

You caught that one nicely Aaron.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Thank you Hugh and Vic. Used my 50mm prime lens.

Another SPIDER Terry. This time it's a Wolf spider just outside the shop door and it was about the size of a nickle.
