Field Notes

Description:

small white eggs with brown freckles
Per some commenter concerns: These eggs were found on the ground near a recently reconstructed jasmine arbor at someone else's home. In the process of tearing down the old arbor, workers knocked the nest out of the creeping jasmine and spilled the eggs onto the ground. There was no returning the eggs to the nest by the time I saw them (a day or two later), they were already cold and abandoned. I have the utmost respect for nature and would never willingly disturb a nest, remove eggs, or handle wildlife for the purpose of photography.

@machi thank you for your concern. I have updated the description field to also include how I came about the eggs.
Can you provide a description of how you came to find these and where? If these were wild I strongly urge not to pick up and move wild bird eggs in the future.
