Tiny Stinkbug Eggs

 

I was trimming a tomato plant & saw this cluster of tiny eggs fall off a leaf. Not sure what species they belong to, but I got some macro photography & was amazed at the structure of these tiny eggs!

I was informed by a member of a Facebook nature photography group that they are (unfortunately) stinkbug eggs. My family is quite familiar with these bastards; they've been pretty pervasive at our home, & always seem to get inside somehow. However, I told my wife that even by bug standards, stinkbugs are dumb as shit.

Still, even life forms as stupid as a stinkbug are still miraculous. Inspiration can be found in all things, even the strange form of tiny egg pods...
