I found them on Saturday at a local park and also on the goldenrod at home. I can&#8217;t put a name to them and it&#8217;s making me a little (more) batty (than usual). I spent a wonderful few hours looking through the images on <a href=\"http:\/\/bugguide.net\/node\/view\/15740\">Bug Guide<\/a>, but found nothing to match. I don&#8217;t have a good insect guide, so I usually turn to online sources when I&#8217;m stumped. Bug Guide is useful for someone like me who doesn&#8217;t know bugs &#8211; a neat feature is that you can search by the flower or plant that an insect is found on. A search for goldenrod brings up a <a href=\"http:\/\/bugguide.net\/index.php?q=search&amp;keys=goldenrod&amp;search=Search\">hungry community of insects<\/a>. None who look like these, unfortunately.  I tried browsing through the images using those scary scientific terms that I never learned properly in school, but didn&#8217;t get very far that way, either.  I just don&#8217;t know enough.  So before I write them and request an ID on what is probably a common insect, I thought I&#8217;d throw the question out to you guys.  Anyone know what these are?  They&#8217;re very pretty and have wings.  \ud83d\ude09<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Any ideas what these bugs are?
