Can someone please tell me what the light string like thing is seen on
the pipe. Is it something growing there under water or was it
deposited like an egg? Picture in alt.binaries.pictures.gardens.

There are several globs of japanese black snail eggs and a small snail
on the pipe. My first thought was another kind of egg, but I haven't
been able to find anything that looks like the light string.

Thanks,

Hal

Frog eggs more than likely, if it is a jelly like string, with
blackish dots spaced out evenly through the strands.

I don't think so, I have seen lots of toad eggs and they don't attach
like this and are bigger. All my tadpoles are toadpoles too.
