Hello, Bugman:
Have you any idea what insect would put these eggs on this parsley leaf? Thank you.

Dear Mary Ann,
Our money is on these being Stink Bug Eggs, but we cannot say for certain which species. Here is a relatively similar looking clutch of eggs from BugGuide.
Thank you, Daniel. I was cutting parsley leaves to add to a salad dressing and luckily spotted them before I whizzed them in the blender. I guess I could say I almost ate them :-} . . . and it probably wouldn’t have been a first.
I posted the pic on Facebook and it created quite a stir.
Thanks, again.
