Do these look like insect eggs to you guys? I don’t know if you can tell. In the first picture there was like green slimy egg looking things on the leaves. I saw a couple flies around it last night too.

Honestly too blurry to tell, but caterpillar poop is often green and round. Bug eggs are usually laid in clusters.

Yeah looks more like some sort of poo to me. Which would make sense that the flies like it. Eggs will be nice and uniform, round or oblong.
