Bald-faced hornets are a notoriously nasty type of nasty stinging bug. This is their house. To quote Wikipedia, "Bald-face hornets will sting repeatedly if the nest is disturbed. Like other stinging wasps, they can sting repeatedly because the stinger does not become stuck in the skin." In other words, I'm pretty much an idiot for taking this picture.
