[ Purple Alien Eggs ] Found In Arizona Desert | Mysterious Spheres

What are these mysterious, translucent purple spheres that were recently found by the thousands in the Arizona desert? Anyone want to take a stab at what they are? I’ve posted a few of the comments from the story below. From KGUN9 in Arizona:

It was a normal Sunday in Vail for Geradine Vargas. Normal, until she and her husband stumbled upon something kind of weird. 

Thousands of tiny, purple-hued spheres piled in the middle of no where.

They were watery, some where translucent, and the pile was completely isolated. Gerardine was amazed, and she wanted answers.

We spoke to Darlene Buhrow, director of marketing at Tucson Botanical Gardens, who’s husband is a botanist. He said if these are something naturally occurring, they could be a slime mold or jelly fungus.
