Field Notes

Description:

Seems to be made of some sort of fibers, very tough. Torn open at one end so wondering if it was some sort of egg sac. Picture for size reference.

This looks like a cocoon from one of the silk moths. The moth has emerged already. https://bugguide.net/node/view/39224/bgpage I moved this to the Arthropods section for you. :-)
