Ladybird eggs are yellow & a bit smaller

possibly a moth or butterfly but not sure what. I will ask my girl when she gets up.

Thanks. Am curious that's all.

so am I now. daughter up and out by the time I got back. will have to ask her later.

They are shield bug eggs apparently, but as to which species it could be one of many. the green shield bug is the most common in the uk. Daughter has found these a lot last year. they are usually slightly sticky so adhere to the leaves.

so we are now less in the dark :o)

Thank you Seaburngirl, I appreciate the effort. Every day is a school day!

it will be a sad day when I don't fancy learning about nature. It has been a passion since I was a very little girl.

Ta from me too. Appreciate your information!
