Orgyia caterpillar? - Orgyia antiqua

Orgyia caterpillar? - Orgyia antiqua
Ankeny NWR, Marion County, Oregon, USA
June 15, 2009
It looks like Orgyia caterpillars but I am no sure. I found this caterpillr in a swampy area; on the boardwalk of the refuge.

Moved from Orgyia.

Ok, we've been staring at Orgyia all morning
We think this is antiqua, same as Lynette's here

It's not as nice a match as we would like, but it does fit the images at Tatum and you can read the comment we left for Lynette.
