Milkweed Assassin Bug Laying Eggs

Zelus longipes

Description:

See the last two photos to see the eggs after the Assassin Bug left. They are like clear little glass jars with stoppers on them! They retained that shine even after they hatched on October 3. Photos of the hatchlings here: https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/17...

Habitat:

Blueberry bush next to a few milkweed plants in a suburban yard
