Won't even try to guess (though the cream colored protrusions could almost look like fly eggs if I squint.

If you find another worrisome pile of poo, place it it a clear glass bottle add water (and lid, don't forget that), shake it up and pour off the liquid. Doing this a couple times will leave all solids and tissues in the bottom for your examination with a jewelers loop or magnifying glass.

I wouldn't worry about one oddball dungball, but keep checking for a bit.
