Orange and Green, Pt. 2 - _TNY_5891
I initially thought this was a poplar leaf beetle (Chrysomela populi) which along with a whole bunch of its buddies chose to munch away at the hebs in the garden.
The colours weren't exactly right though, so I asked around and it turns out this instead is a knotgrass leaf beetle (Chrysolina polita).
