Large White eggs?

Post by peterc »

I came across 3 batches of yellow eggs between 1 and 2 metres high on some railings facing east surrounding a kissing gate in my local area. Someone suggested that they might be ladybird eggs. Anyone have any ideas?

22 May - Having examined the eggs in more detail I don't think they are Large White eggs because of the rounded peaks

I'd agree that they're not Large White eggs, but I'm not sure what they are!

Cheers,

Thanks, Pete.

They could be ladybird eggs but still strange to find them on metal :)
