Tiny White Moth

Tiny White Moth

These are perched on black berry stems.  I have been observing them for several days.  I have found two plants perhaps 200 yards apart upon which they are perched.

I have searched and searched on this one.  I suspect that it is larval stage of something.  It seems to be furry or woolly.  I have not physically captured one.  I can't seem to see any of the fore wing.  I am assuming they have wings.  I have never seem one open them. 

They seem to remain on the same stem from day to day.  They can walk around.  I have only observed them in the early to mid morning.

If you look closely on the stem in some of the shots there may be something on it upon which they may be feeding.

I think that I will try to photograph them using flash.  They barely move and I have, thus far, used only available light.

I would greatly appreciate any comments regarding the identity of this creature or anything else, for that matter.
