Bee building nest in cedar shingle wall. Think is Bald Faced Hornet but can't be sure. Might be yellow jacket? The yellow is from the flower/leaf it was carrying.

ryanliDescription
This was a shock and a half. What I mistakenly identified as a beaver soon became three river otters. But where's the river??? I also have a video and two other eyewitnesses (including the one who correctly identified it). Long, lithe mustelids with long, whippy tails. They swam, bobbed around, and even climbed onto the side of the bank for a moment. Did they air drop these in from planes like with the coyotes XD XD XD ?
