Just noticed this when getting a new AC installed yesterday. Not sure if it's a bird or squirrel nest, or even active. It's super high up that I don't have a ladder to reach, also I am not super cool with being that close to electrical wiring but I feel like it's a hazard that needs to be removed. Anyone else experience this and what you suggest my approach should be or what service might need to be hired?

Fuck no. I'm an electrician and wouldn't do that. A nick could be under that birds nest and you'd never see it. Call the utility company. They'll take care of this.
