Unidentified Egg Sac

Unidentified Egg Sac
Turtle River State Park, Grand Forks County, North Dakota, USA
March 18, 2012
Size: Diameter ~ 5mm
A distinctive 'Sputnik-looking' egg sac that probably belongs to a spider. Hoping to identify the family and/or genus, if possible. This bears a striking resemblance to this BG image (below).

Thanks, Lynette!
Thanks for the help, Lynette! I commonly see these egg sacs tucked in to the dark corners of the roofs and sides of the buildings at the Turtle River State Park in the Spring.
