Indians For Guns

Hi all,
The attached photo is clicked by My daughter. It's some sort of insect nest or colony. It's on the trunk of one of the water apple Tree at home. I am traveling right now for some official purpose so my daughter send me this pic.
After 12th I parted myself with Zoology and Botany and paired with Geology so unable to figure out anything. Looking very artistic design so I put this picture here.

Interesting. Please post dome more pictures from different angles if possible.

Doesn't seem like a design of insect origin, at least nothing I've ever seen/ read about.

Yes, I am also confused of that. Tomorrow morning I will able to post some more pictures and video of it. Hopefully that will help us to identify

Some more Pics for your reference.

Hey brother , it's not a nest . It's the insect itself . Five of them - Big and lovely . This is also found on Tuar Daal plants in a small size . I do not know the name . It would have been very helpful if the pictures were taken with the small scale placed ( affixed ) next to it .

Later they will look like shown in this picture . They are also found in the bushes alongside tropical rivers in our country. I have a faint impression that they bit me sometime . The sting was very mild .

Will send you the scalled pics shortly. By the way thanks for clearing about it. So it's probably the early stage of a furry caterpillar.

Dear Shivavji,

It is a caterpillar, then you should wait for few more day (probably 8-10 weeks) to turn that itself into a beautiful butterfly.
