"I celebrate myself, and sing myself,/And what I assume you shall assume,/For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.//I loafe and invite my soul,/I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass."

where did this guy come from? It's a spotted cucumber beetle, Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi, also known as the Southern corn rootworm (larval stage), and it's enjoying the Sharecropper's beans.
