I was about to delete a shot but saw some interesting hitch hikers

I took this shot hand held, of a little pinkie nail size flower. I did not like the depth of field on the center and was poised to delete it and for some reason I zoomed the shot on screen and saw three very strange critters to the right all feeding from the stem like mosquitoes on my tasty self.
Great cammo, they blend in well except for their black legs.
Any one know what they are?

Really? Thanks.... I thought those critters where White in color. I wonder what the tiny white bugs I have seen are? They are also bigger than what I thought Aphids were.

Aphids are the scourge of gardeners. Lady beetles are a gardener's best friend.
