If they are attached to a solid surface, they are cory eggs.
 
My phone doesn't want to take good pics this morning

It's hard to tell from the photos. Usually opaque white eggs are infertile while translucent eggs are fertile. White eggs can also be fungused.
I have never knowlingly bred cories (though I did have some fry mysteriously appear when I had pygmy cories) so I'll have to leave yours for someone who does breed them.
 
These r from my big camera

All the eggs came from 1 cory. And she is still letting more out

Last pic I can see lots of fertile eggs. Better move them to a separate tank f you want to keep them or at least a breeding box. :)
 
I looked online and 1 female lays bout 15 I have a lot more then that
Depends on the species. Bronze(green) cories lay a lot of eggs. My first batch I had 237 eggs, only two females in the tank, and must have had around the same amount this time, again, only two females in the tank, probably all came from the one female, since only one was huge and looked full of eggs. Bronzes lay a lot of eggs :D

Good luck! I'm raising my second batch of cory fry now, adorable little things that grow fast!
 
Can you please post a photo of the adult fish. Because I always think of this fish as the Emerald green cory. Either the Brochis short bodied or Corydoras splendens. But not the bronze cat Corydoras aeneus.
 
She is a green
