At first glance from a distance I thought the subject of the attached photo was some sort of caterpillar hanging out on the corner of a gate post in our backyard. But when it didn’t move I got a closer look and found what appears to be two very neat rows of… eggs? As usual I will appreciate any guidance you might be able to offer.

Dear Will,
These are the eggs of a Katydid, most likely one of the Angle Wing Katydids that are quite common in Los Angeles. See this BugGuide image.
Once again What’s That Bug rocks! Thank you so much, Daniel.
