Hey, Kids! (Moms, Dads, go get the kids!)
The bumpy object in this photo is very small today.
Smaller than your smallest finger.
Smaller than your smallest toe!
Find a ruler ... it's smaller than 1/2 inch!
What am I?
(Click on the photo for a larger view.)
A baby cucumber?

Looks like a baby zucchini, and some kind of eggs from a pest? The are not squash bug eggs, I am anxious to find out.

Your Dad is a riot! LOL What a blessing to have him...
I have to agree it's a baby cucumber; and whatever it be, it's just precious! I also thought it was a little worm at first glance! hehe
Thanks for the great photo...you make life fun!

Look like "picklin" cukes to me!
Posted by: Nora | June 16, 2010 at 07:01 AM
zucchini yum

My first thought was a bloom on a cactus, but I don't think your farm is near the desert. I guess a cucumber also. Playing it safe. Mary

Flowering cactus is my guess.
My zucchinis and cucks don't have those little green prickly looking green bally things all over them.
Posted by: Sylvie Greeniaus | June 16, 2010 at 05:55 AM
that is a small little cucumber........
Posted by: Harriet | June 16, 2010 at 05:33 AM
Cuke? Looks like a very small version of what is on my counter from my friends garden! :)
Posted by: Jessie | June 16, 2010 at 05:03 AM
I think the class is pretty smart! Looks like a tiny new zucch1ni. hugs...
Posted by: Carol Dee | June 16, 2010 at 04:34 AM
We're pretty set on cucumber and those little round things make the bumps on the skin when they fall off. My first guess was a corn blossom.
Posted by: Jean (naturecoastcrafter) | June 16, 2010 at 04:34 AM
I agree with everyone else. It is either a cucumber or a zucchini. How cool is that!
Posted by: Janet Sisk | June 16, 2010 at 04:28 AM
At first glance, I thought it was a caterpillar (and I thought ..."Man, they grown some strange bugs in Anna's neck of the woods!" But then, I realized from the comments, that it probably is a baby cucumber (love what your Dad wrote!!!).

Awesome photograph! WOWZA! I'm guessing a stamen of something. I can't guess cucumber or zucchini though because the darned groundhog that will NOT leave my garden alone ate all of my cucumbers and zucchini so I have none to go by. sigh.......
Posted by: Jennifer Woodward | June 16, 2010 at 03:49 AM
I'm guessing a cuke. Hmm not sure.
Posted by: GLENDA BROOKS | June 16, 2010 at 02:33 AM
I found one just like this, or was it bigger....growing in an old burito wrapper under the seat of my pickup truck a couple of days ago! I haven't been to taco time in a year and a half. What a relief I thought I had lost it...maybe I have....Love, Dad
Posted by: DK Wight | June 15, 2010 at 11:19 PM
Definitely a cuke. I'm making pickles like a mad woman with mine.
Posted by: Susan G | June 15, 2010 at 10:34 PM
Zucchini!
Posted by: Vicki E | June 15, 2010 at 09:49 PM

I'm going with zucchini but are those bumps supposed to be there? At first I thought they were aphids but now I dont think so. Hmmm...
Posted by: Rebecca Ednie | June 15, 2010 at 09:02 PM
