This looks like a nest, no eggs. Is it hollow, about 3-5 inches long? If so it could be a Mud Dauber Nest..they are a nasty wasp. We used to get them on the deck...they love chairs and undersides of just about anything.

It looks like a Dirt Daubers nest. Do you have that color of dirt or sand where this occurred? Where I live they are usually a black or brown color, so it looks like whatever the color of the terrain ends up the color of the nest.

I've never heard them called any other name. They look like a wasp, but I've never known anyone that's ever been stung by one. As far as I know they are harmless.

This is some sort of nest a wasp or other bug has used to lay eggs in and breed. I get them around here but mine are a lot different because I live in the tropics.
