Default Identify the subject

I love taking pictures of bugs, animals, wildflowers. My problem becomes identifying them once they are taken.

What are some good resources out there to identifying the stuff that's been taken?

I have a couple books for birds and flowers. My main problem seems to be getting nailed down the family of that type of subject, so I can narrow the species.

The websites given should help lots though, thanks!!
