Orange Mum

I found this cucumber beetle on my orange mums as I took my photo today. Reading about them, I learned they are considered a pest and eat flowers. I’ll be on the lookout tomorrow to see if there are more and to figure out how to get rid of them.

Great capture. Hopefully there are not to many

Terrific shot

Ah but such a beautiful thing. I wonder if they have natural predators?

Fantastic shot! I have never seen one of these beetles before.
