I've never seen anything like these before. I did some searching online and figured they may be butterfly or moth eggs. Any ideas?
*Some of the eggs are black (dead?) because I left the leaf inside the car for a couple of hours.

Looks like moth eggs but there are so many it's difficult to say which type as some are located at different times in different areas of the country. I do not see any black centers so hopefully, these are not stinkbugs.
I think white flies usually attack plants and this looks like a tree leaf but??
You can always send these pictures to your county extension agency and they can probably answer your question more accurately as they know what type of insects are more prevalent in your area right now.
Just as information you can see how many different moths can be in one state:

They do look like moth eggs. Although if they have black centers, they could be stink bug eggs.
They look like Whiteflies- Whiteflies can produce up to 300 eggs at a time, which they lay on the underside of leaves. After 4-12 days the tiny white eggs hatch. Here is more info about this insect - en.wikipedia.org/
This looks like the eggs from a Walnut caterpillar moth. The eggs this moth lay is the same as the ones I am seeing here. This moth normally lays eggs twice a year, once at the beginning of summer and then again at the end of summer. It appears that your eggs haven't hatched yet. When they do hatch When they do hatch you will start to notice that your leaves will be turning a brown color.
