Bagworm Moth - Psychidae

One morning we found this big bagworm attached to one side of our cabin's porch in Weda, Halmahera.
In the next pic I have my fingers next to it for you to have an idea of its size. I think family is as close as I can get. I find these animals amazing in the way they build their own shelter around themselves..impressive!
