Bug ID needed. Friend or foe? I often see these on my roses.

I think they are either Magined or Pennsylvania leatherwings - it's hard for me to tell without seeing the back of the head/neck

Margined - http://davesgarden.com/bf/go/826/

I've got a bunch of Margined leatherwings in my flower gardens and they don't do any damage - I think they are "good guys"

Thanks that is what it is.
