I'm pretty new to vegetable gardening and haven't been able to identify what these are (see attached pictures)?
The eggs were on the edge of a kale leaf.
Thank you I really appreciate your help!

The only way to know for sure is to let them hatch but I know of two harmful things that lay white eggs like the ones shown and in the same pattern too. Stinkbugs and armyworms. I would spray everything in the garden and both sides of the leaves with Neem Oil. If it is army worms they are capable of eating a sizeable portion of your garden overnight.

Thank you, that was helpful because from looking up "army worms" eggs I discovered they are moth eggs.

Any chance you have insight into the other image?

It looks like beet or spinach leaf miner damage.
