Hm. You should pick up an immersion heater at that nifty hardware store, and some lightweight cups. You don't want to be missing out on hot chocolate.

3 years agoThat was my first thought till I zoomed in and saw 2 black & white ones (really fuzzy, could be just lighting?). Then again, even if they are wasps, they might only be visiting the nest for some reason... like food or easily stolen building materials, etc.
By the way, if it is a termite colony, there will be tunnels built on the trunk running to the ground. If otherwise, no tunnels.
Yes, by the roadside, but with a toy 20x zoom camera.
3 years agoYou must have a good zoom feature. I can’t see the wasps.
My first thought was termites
Oropendula nest was my first impression as well
3 years agoCould be, but their nests look somewhat more neatly constructed. I guess we need a picture of the critter, or some birdwatcher from down there for verification. Similar to nests I saw in Trinidad.

Yup. Sure does!
3 years agoBrilliant.
3 years agoPerhaps. My vote though goes to an oropendola nest. We saw these kayaking through the Jaguar preserve in Belize years ago. Funniest bird I’ve ever seen.
