This morning some small egg-things appeared on my shutter. Here are a couple of pictures: http://xs222.xs.to/xs222/07500/Untitled-3.jpg (sorry for the low quality). What animal put them and what should I do (I'd rather not kill them)? Thanks.

You are unlikely to catch them hatching unless you devise some type of container to surround them. Yes they are likely insects. Try something like a nylon stocking, porous but small holes so it can't get out. Because of the time of the year I expect they will not hatch until spring.

You said they were in the morning. I'm guessing they weren't there the day before, considering the window might be near your bed. If you found them in the morning, they were lain the night before. So that narrows it down to nocturnal bugs.
More than likely a moth, a big one for that fact. Look up types of hawk-moths or woodland o hedgegrowth moths on google.
Bare in mind I'm only secondary school student, thinking about studying zoology!

I could not identify the ova ; there is a high degree of probability that they are from an insect . ( I , too , am interested and I will be watching this very good question for the answer ; thankyou for sharing ! )
Happy & safe holidays ! :0)
