Snug as a bug

Can’t say I would feel too comfortable climbing this if I were this bug’s size, but s/he didn’t mind. If you can identify this bug, I’d love to see a comment. It was pretty small, about half the size of the width of my pinkie fingernail.

    I’m pretty sure it’s a Japanese Beetle. I believe it’s an invasive species.

  2. I think you’re right, Gretchen… I figured it was something like that. I looked up all of the beetles I could find, but couldn’t see that. But a quick google search after your suggestion seemed to confirm it…
