Sign In to followDefinitely oecophoridae. I also think it's Eulechria heliophanes?
You are most definitely correct! I uploaded two different individuals by mistake, as I have similar pictures of a few specimens. Thanks for the comment- will remove one of the pictures :)
Looks to me like a Tersa Sphinx moth! What a beauty.
The way I knew this was a black bear and not a brown bear (ahem, grizzly bear) is because of the difference in size and some small indicators like ear shape and the lack of a shoulder hump.
Indeed the name suggests that they are all black in color. Unfortunately it's not that simple. Black bears can range from light/cinnamon brown to a dark black shade, and in rare cases; white! If you'd like, national geographic has a bit more information that's reliable enough to trust :)

Hi there, it's hard to tell the distinct markings of the snake from this picture, but you may have some luck by looking at this website- http://www.herpsofnc.org/herps_of_nc/sna... and checking if you recognize any of those!
Good luck!
My boyfriend and I live in Whistler BC, and we decided to go for a drive as the sun was going down. Just off of a main road in the area. We saw a total of 5 bears on the drive, all on that same strip of road!
I just downloaded that app, Geodialist, It's fantastic!
Beautiful colors on that leaf, too.
It isn't a confirmed identification, so I don't know if removing the text is necessary, I'm sure further help with identification is still welcomed.
