These are the hanging nests of the Montezuma Oropendola, a tropical bird who is characterized with a black head and a bright yellow tail. These woven nests are normally built in trees that are somewhat isolated from the rest of the forest so that monkeys cannot eat their eggs. The Montezuma Oropendola prefer these isolated trees to have hornets nests to help them protect from predators as well.
