These eggs were found on a leaf of my lemon tree. I figure they are the eggs of some pest of some kind so they have been removed. I tried to do a search to find out what they might be the eggs of, & could only find the "bronzed orange bug" or "stink bug". In the pics I found, the eggs were green, not brown like these, and somewhere I read that they always lay 14 eggs, which I find hard to believe. There is also something called the "Horned Citrus Bug" which also is a pest. Anyway, whatever these eggs are the babies of, they are no longer on my tree and can do no more damgage to it.Welcome to my Sydney suburban garden, the life within, and occasionally the life beyond
