A quick trip out to the garden last night revealed a Japanese invader, the Japanese Beetle or popillia japonica. They're very interesting looking and equally destructive. Gladly they're busy destroying a weed.
If you look closely you'll see somewhat of a self portrait in silhouette in the beetles shell.
Gah! These destroyed our green beans almost over night last year!
