Blister beetles (Nemognatha nemorensis)

Larose Forest

As soon as the black-eyed susan flowers bloom, these small blister beetles appear. Sometimes the flower head is covered with them, all seeking that golden pollen.

Poor Susan has not one, but two bugs in her eye. Cool photo.

Love how they are covered with pollen. The radiating pattern of the flower makes for a great background. "V"
