Red Milkweed Beetle

So pretty!!

Alicelongmartin :) I have finally found on what plant I have seen this small bug. This is in spotting from my friend KarenL. A Common milkweed , Asclepias syricacia In addition to the names are similar hihiihi :)

Thank you very much everybody !! :) I did not notice the plant. But next time I was there I will shoot to identify the habitat of this little guy. :)

Great shots! The ID is correct alice. I saw the same insect a few weeks ago.
