Description

These eggs were left high and dry when the lake level changed so I moved them back into the water. The lake is full of rough skinned newts and the eggs look a bit like them. The limbs have not started to differentiate from the bodies on the embryos.

In spite of being out of water the eggs looked healthy. I did not see the embryos moving at all.
