Dolichovespula maculata
A hornet nest hanging in a red maple tree. All the workers are dead, otherwise I would have many stings right now.

Thank you for the input, Maria!
Nice spotting. It looks similar to a bald-faced hornet nest that I spotted: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/795... - I moved this to the arthropods category for you. :)
