Virginia Ctenucha moth eggs

I happened across this pretty cluster of eggs on a goldenrod leaf and since they look similar to the eggs that I saw a Ctenucha moth lay, I am guessing they might be from that species.

well-spotted Christine..they seem like little solar-powered regeneration factories, fleshy yet resilient...might be worth keeping an eye on this nascent colony..

Yes, lovely like little glittering marbles that you can roll around. Beautiful on that textured green leaf.
