I'm a newbie and I'm a confused

About a week ago I decided to make a terrarium for plants and dirt from my woods. It's growing quite well and I've noticed I have a jumping spider and a tiny white worm in there. I didn't notice any other bugs but I noticed today there are like this tiny long yellow egg type things on a grass blade in there. I'm not sure if it is eggs but I just wondered what it is.

It's a little hard to see on my phone, but looks like what we call a Mayfly in Texas. If it moves or flies, at least you'll know it's not an egg sack ?

Sorry... looked on a larger screen and it's no Mayfly. Don't know.

Is it just regular old grass? Might be part of the plant.

Up close it reminds me of rice kinda.

I got a better picture and my mom thinks it's part of the grass. Like its seeding.

Try anthers from a flower.
 
It was not here when I put the plants in here.

Hawken is correct -- they're anthers (the male portions of a flower).
