What the Heck is This?

A friend of mine found a tiny little spore on a flower the other day. He had a funny feeling about it, so he collected it and put it under a microscope. It was not a spore - it was some sort of creepy mutant bug. A bumpy, squirmy red blob with sharp quilled legs. It was surrounded by what appeared to be eggs. Gross!

I was lucky enough to hold the camera steady on the eye piece of the microscope.
