He is sitting ontop of a cone flower, that is where I keep seeing them.

It looks like a baby hemiptera or homoptera to me. It could be anything from an aphid to a small bug (Hemiptera). I think this one will need to get a little bigger for me to figure out what it is.

Anyone else have a guess?

I'll try to get closer if my camera will allow and if he wont run from me.
He has good eye sight as well. Took awhile to sneak up on him.
They are only in the center of the cone flower, so I'll watch him and see if he get bigger as well.
Thanks again!!

well, not an aphid, something in the true bug family. looks like maybe a nymph of squash or stink bug. (not the good kind) just guessing here.
