First I found a cluster of a couple dozen of these at the base of the blueberry bush. Today we found that they are also in the leaves. This is one of the biggest, about 3/8 inch. All are red and look to me like they are just growing like a true bug. This bush has a number of branches dying and berries turning blue without developing.

Oh, then I found two of these guys on a jade plant on the other side of the yard, with a couple of yellow leaves.
