Eggs, aka Ova

I found these on the underside of a ragwort leaf (Jacobaea vulgaris, syn. Senecio jacobaea).  They are the eggs of a cinnabar moth, Tyria jacobaeae.  Eggs are laid in batches of 30 - 40 on the underside of leaves.

Nearby were some more mature individuals. One is in the 'extras'.

Location: Fife Coastal Path between Kinghorn and Burntisland.
