Mystery

Photo (c) Dancing Snake Nature Photography 2/15/2017

The one and only Serpent Princess sent this photo of mysterious balls in a Foothills Palo Verde (Parkinsonia microphylla). We think these silk-covered balls are egg sacs, but seven seems unusually fecund, even for a spider. Any experts out there who can confirm or deny?
