Any Idea What This Is?

While looking at cars and boats this little thing was hiding on a bush and then came out into harsh Sunlight. I have no idea what it might be. Any ideas?

Great find. It is a red milkweed beetle.
Thank you sippy. It would make perfect sense he was photographed on a Milkweed. That might help me remember for next time.

Did you see any Monarch butterflies around, Dennis? They feed almost exclusively on Milkweed!
