Cooler today, thanks to a NW wind & some rain yesterday, bringing a few more arthropods into the garden.

This is a seed beetle in genus Bruchus. iNaturalist suggests with B. affinis or B. pisorum (pea weevil), but ObsIdentify is convinced it's B. atomarius, & after checking pictures, I tentatively agree.
