Notice the small hole in one of the transparent panels. That must be where something stuck its proboscis in and drank the contents. Yesterday, this egg looked like this:
Clearly, either the contents is liquid at this stage or the predator injected some digestive fluid to liquify it.

Fascinating to see the egg with the microscopic hole. Great observations and photos!
Thanks Chris. I was tempted to bring the empty egg home to get better photos under the microscope but in the end I left it there, out of respect. Guy
