Japanese beetles (Popillia japonica)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

These are very common non-native scarab beetles, that eat a wide variety of plants, hence are not beloved of gardeners. They are quite beautiful, however. One of these beetles appears to have something attached to its head, possibly mites.
