Hi, Peter -- if your brown woolly-bear caterpillar had two black  
ends, it was an ISABELLA MOTH CATERPILLAR, Pyrrharctia isabella.  A  
good source for identification of common caterpillars of both  
butterflies and moths is the Peterson First Guide to CATERPILLARS, by  
Amy Bartlett Wright (1993).  This species overwinters as a somewhat  
active caterpillar, and then it pupates in Spring.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
