?? Some kind of insect eggs? Several on needles in Eastern White Pine. In urban park.
This Barklouse was on a stick I was photographing. I didn't notice it at the time.
Identification by @benarmstrong and @zdanko. Thank you both!
These photos were edited to have an Auto White Balance in Photoshop. Photos 1-5 were sharpened.

Photographed on the hairs of my own arm. I don't know when I picked this up; the location is where I was when I noticed it.
I think this is a bee rather than a wasp, but I'm not entirely sure. It was about the size of a honeybee or just slightly smaller.
