I agree with Juergen that IF they are eggs, and this is still a big if, they are LARGE. This suggests low numbers and high larval survival. Is that likely for such tiny flies? Also, if they are eggs, it suggests some form of brood care - rather unexpected.

perhaps laid under stress


Doubtful, since I saw it twice on one day in different places. And my photography is quite harmless :D
