It's harder to see in this picture than I had hoped, but this little bugger (ha ha) is a Harlequin Bug, and he's feasting on my broccoli! You can check out the link below for more info. No pesticides recommended - not that I would use them anyway. Looks like I'm going to have to pick them off and crush them like I did with the potato beetles. Yuck.

And the good news?
I do believe that these two little sprouts are some spinach coming up....
