I was wondering if anyone could help me identify a strange insect which
seems to be nesting in a tree (fir or cypress, I think) here in San Diego.
The insects look a lot like small white feathers!  I've never seen anything
like them.  I'm thinking of buying the house behind this tree, so I'm
worried because these insects seem to be everywhere.  There seems to be web
like nests in the tree, so I thought that these insect might be moth larvae
or something.

Any ideas?
