I found one of them on a dandelion, my first guess was that it laid eggs and now watched them because it was very focused on the overwhelming dandelions and stink bugs guarding their eggs and kids. 

After a moment's observation, I saw that there was not one but several stink bugs on the ball. After googling, I realized that it was not an egg, but it was dandelion seeds that attracted. 

Stink bugs eat seeds, among other things, and they had a feast on the blooming dandelions.
