Ladybug

On iNaturalist, this small colorful beetle has only been observed three times in NYC. All the observations have been at Marine Park during the month of June. Two are from years past, this one my contribution this month.

Turns out, there are some similar-looking beetles, but this one seems to be Ursine Spurleg/Brachiacantha ursina. Seemed to be supping on the sap (?).
