I may be having to change nest material for the next several days, due to repeated contamination of the nest with fiberglass brought back by the parents.

The eggs are probably the most delicate things I’ve handled in recent memory. Any thoughts, besides "very carefully", on how to pick them up? —

Mike,

Use the Elliptical Marquee tool to isolate the eggs. Copy them to their own temp layer, they are no more fragile than your every day chicken eggs but (human) artifacts should be avoided at all costs. Use Eraser tool to eliminate said contamination. Flatten.
