Camping!

Fellow campers - baked potatoes down by the coals and ribeye on the grill. The wafting odors gets one lured in for a closer look/pic. I'm built for speed - they'd never catch me if I snatched a ribeye. :D

This little mud nest was behind a hinge of a storage compartment. Not sure what those green things were, guessing caterpillars. The fat one at the bottom was interesting. Eviction notice served.

The other end of the slide through compartment had a nest made of grass clippings - about a foot wide - guessing chipmunk or red squirrel. Feckers. Extension cord was chewed on. Taped up some cracks on the underbelly and spray foamed above the propane tank compartments. Will use copper mesh in some access holes. I was reminded that it's a conservation area (so no traps) and not a trailer park. May as well call it a gated community.

The large one is the wasp larva. The female goes out and stings the caterpillars to put them in a kind of coma to act as food for the larva until it metamorphizes into another wasp and breaks out of the cocoon.
