I was out for a walk at the nature sanctuary I help manage and maintain, not much else I can do now that I have Covid (fully vaccinated), and came across this beetle swaying in the breeze on a tall stalk of grass. When I returned home, I looked it up in our insect book and it turns out to be a Colorado Potato Beetle. Not a welcome visitor to potato croppers obviously.

Good looking bug, it kind of reminds me a ladybug.
