The ugliest insect I ever saw

I think that it was at the beginning of the year last year when I saw this thing in the tree. I didn't touch it but it was a big huge nest and had something in it and it looked so creepy! I took pictures of it, not too sure where they are now, probably in my photobucket account somewhere but no idea where and I have thousands of pics in it so one of these days I might come across it again and share but until then, just know that it was an ugly big thing in a white messed up looking huge nest in the tree!! YIKES!
