It doesn't look dry since everything is green you must have great soil .My lawn was turning brown after only a week of no rain from 90 + degree weather

What do you suppose these eggs are from? Im going to watch closely and see what hatches. They were laid in a Chia gnome filled with peat moss then set in my pond to stay wet. See the tiny black eggs in the hole? How interesting!
