Bugs on a pod

Last night was was what I would call a bug-a-palooza.  I went out with my headlamp on to check on a few about to open flower buds and I was bombarded with insects.

This beetle seemed to be guided by the light because as soon as I moved on it was back in my face swirling around my headlamp.
