tent cats will have their "nests" in the fork of a tree and very close to the trunk or limb. these look more like fall webworms to me. they have their "nests" on the outer branches, but wrong time of year for them, i think.
It just seems like mid June as being way to early for fall web worms. I'm trying to fine a good close-up of the insect to match it up. Thank you for your thoughts.
Any idea is good it give me a direction to check to get the answer. Finding out it isn't something is a step forward. I'll let you know how I do. Thanks again for your help. M
