Seen on a beech hedge
Not a berry or otherwise attached; some kind of insect egg cocoon?
As a result of a very useful discussion - http://www.geograph.org.uk/discuss/index.php?&action=vthread&forum=2&topic=29301 - it was finally agreed that these are not animal or vegetable, but mineral; plastic insulation balls!
