I grow Poplar trees in pots in my garden for attracting hawk moths, when I checked the leaves I thought these were moth eggs at first, until I looked under a powerful magnified glass, and recognised them as beetle eggs, probably green shield beetle. They looked to me like smileys, or little aliens. I had to use a lot of extensions on my camera as most of these very small eggs will fit on a pinhead, so I laid my camera and lenses etc, on my patio table and held the leaf still with a crocodile clip.
