Parenting (Part 2)

I was looking around to find something to be my model (it's really getting tougher and tougher ), and found these tiny creatures. Don't know what they are, but the pair of adults was guarding what seemed like their "nest" and their offspring. The white critters are really tiny tiny. I also noticed that when I processed these pics, there seem to be a couple of un-hedged eggs. Anyway, hope your like the pics:
