Spider egg sacks? You may be able to vaguely see the web that these sacs are attached to. This is approximately a 5x magnification. I believe it is an orb weaver spider.  I have not been able to capture the spider in a photo.  The spider is appox .3 cm  Fall,Geotagged,United States Click/tap to enlarge

  1. Cool! I wonder if it could be from a trashline orbweaver (Cyclosa sp.)? Or else, maybe the eggs of a Basilica Orbweaver (Mecynogea lemniscata)?

    1. The spider looks more like the second from the right on this webpage. I can see the black triangles on it's back, been trying for months to get a photo of it. Unfortunately this webpage doesn't have size.
