MYSTERIOUS BLUE JELLY BALLS FALL FROM SKY - STORY UPDATE

A man in Dorset has been left mystified after tiny blue spheres fell from the sky into his garden.

Steve Hornsby from Bournemouth said the 3cm diameter balls came raining down late on Thursday afternoon during a hail storm.
He found about a dozen of the balls in his garden. He said: "[They're] difficult to pick up, I had to get a spoon and flick them into a jam jar."
The Met Office said the jelly-like substance was "not meteorological".
Mr Hornsby, a former aircraft engineer, said: "The sky went a really dark yellow colour.
"As I walked outside to go to the garage there was an instant hail storm for a few seconds and I thought, 'what's that in the grass'?"
'No smell'

Mr Hornsby said he was keeping the balls in his fridge while he tried to find out what they were

Walking around his garden he found many more blue spheres were scattered across the grass.
He said: "The have an exterior shell with a softer inner but have no smell, aren't sticky and do not melt."
Mr Hornsby said he was keeping the balls in his fridge while he tried to find out what they were.
Josie Pegg, an applied science research assistant at Bournemouth University, speculated that the apparently strange phenomena might be "marine invertebrate eggs".
"These have been implicated in previous 'strange goo' incidents," she said. "I'd have thought it's a little early for spawning but I suppose we've had a very mild winter.
"The transmission of eggs on birds' feet is well documented and I guess if a bird was caught out in a storm this could be the cause."

An update:

Haunted Earth viewer, Deborah Connell Markham has reported that this event also occurred in mid July, 2010 in her sister`s garden in Rotherham, South Yorkshire which is a couple hundred miles from Bournemouth.
She was present during the fall and her sister kept some of these balls in a bag while those in the garden did not dissolve.
Clearly this phenomena is very odd to say the least and the fact that they have occurred so many miles apart may suggest another source for these balls, and not as speculated, a type of fish egg.
Rotherham is quite some distance from the sea.
Here are two pictures taken at the time:
