Dawn
What looked like moss in the shallow water running at the bottom of the irrigation ditch turned out to look like tiny eggs, but I have no idea what laid them if they are eggs. It looks like thousands upon thousands of eggs and it’s hard to imagine what could lay so many eggs.
A closer view of what looks like eggs on the bottom of the ditch.
Sliver moon through the slats in the miniblinds
The clouds cleared after sunset and we were able to see the sliver moon through the window in Beaker’s and Søren’s room.
The moon through the window.
The Rio Grande was still running higher this afternoon from the rains up north.
Off Center & Not Even 
Those little eggs look like water droplets; and, that blue sky is so deep and beautiful.
They also look like eyeballs. Thanks, Jeff.
Ah, indeed. Most welcome, Tim.
The eggs are a curious find. I love those river scenes.
I may or may not see the moon tonight. It has been hot, hazy with some clouds today. It peaked at 96 degrees.
The eegs are weird. You had the same high that we did. Thanks, Lavinia.
They do look like little eyeballs! Wonder what they are?
I can’t see my moon lately as it comes up too late!
Beautiful pics.
You should be able to see in setting in the western sky soon. It was too cloudy last night.
I was up at 2 am and could see a super bright star – not sure which – but no moon. The neighbour’s tree has gotten super big, so that doesn’t help. But still. It pains me!
The moon will rise about 9 am your time and set at about 9:30 pm your time. You should be able to see it right after sunset if your sky is clear.
That bright star was probably Jupiter.
The moon rises at 9 am? And sets at 9:30 pm? No wonder I cannot see it.. The sun sets at 8:22 tonight. I’ll have to take a walk and see just where I can see the damn thing!
I knew you would tell me it was one of the planets! Woot!
Jupiter is super bright right now.
I had this feeling.
Could they we spider eggs I wonder? Spiders usually lay their eggs in balls of web though so probably not. Interesting pictures, Timothy.
These are in water, so I don’t think they are spider eggs. Thank, Roberta.
Long as they ain’t alien eggs we are all good. Seriously these pictures are stunning. The silver moon one especially.
Thanks, Shey. Being New Mexico with Roswell and all, they could be alien eggs or ailien eyes watching me.
Well.. I did think that. You watch what comes out of them now!
Nada. The ditch dried up.
Hell… well maybe if they were gonna be aliens…
Or maybe not. The desert sun is not alien friendly.
Bet you’re glad.
Aliens, La Llorana, chuppacabra, el Cucuí… We have all the monsters and weirdos out here
Oh, you have many times said and shown as much.
The dawn is a gorgeous Twilight. Which colours would we assign to this mystical light. Never fails to captivate.

Algae or Barnacles. Layers of porous skin/limestone. I would rub my barefeet over it. ☺
That is a terrific shot, spotting the moon through the blinds.
With stunning eclipses, loosing their plumage.
And the Rio Grande is full.
I love it.
Thanks, abvr. No barnacles or limestone. Only clay on which those egss were lying.
Really, I would never think they were eggs on clay. Very interesting.
Very curious about those eggs…
It certainly is. Thanks, Couriers.
Those bubbly eggs look so beautiful! Great Moon captures through the windows and Rio Grande skies!
Happy August, my friend!
Thanks, Marina.
🙏😌
The eggs look like frog eggs.
They do, but frog eggs are usually in geletinous clumps. Thanks, Liz.
Have you been able to identify them yet?
Nope! The ditch dried up.
I was thinking the same as Liz… frog eggs?
Great pics of the moon and sky!
Enjoy your first day of August.
Thanks, Nancy. I can’s say. Frog eggs are usually in geletinous clumps.
The eggs look like the beginning of a Sci-Fi monster horror alien kind of Grade C flick. Window shots are very unique, and glad the river is still up.
Thanks, Maj & Sher. The green eyes that ate the earth.
Whoa, that’s pretty creepy, aliens for sure! 👾
True. Thanks, Tiffany.
Wow those eggs are wild Tom and all are so beautiful!!
💕
Thanks, Cindy.

Frog eggs?
Love that shot through the mini-blinds! It’s very new age impressionistic!
I can’t say. I don’t know if they would have turned into tadpoles because the water evaporated. Thanks, Resa.
Hmmmm, intriguing eggs if that is what it is, let’s hope whatever hatches out of them is tame.
The water evaporated before they could hatch. Thanks, Brian.
