Hello, first post...
I started taking walks during lockdown, and to make things more interesting I used the Seek App to identify plants.
When it got to the point when it was difficult to find many more plants, I moved on to insects. I realized after a short time that it was much more interesting to take a 10/15 sec video than a picture. I found the easiest way to share with friends and family who wanted to see them was to create a quick YouTube channel. Unfortunately Seek was not able to identify everything and I’d rather not put up a video with the wrong info so I’m going to post unlisted videos here until they are identified and then I’ll make them public. Hope that’s ok.
Seek said it was a rose aphid but the color pattern didn’t match anything on google images. Philadelphia, Pa under a lilly leaf.

Thanx again to buggguide.net for pointing out my obvious oversite...that I should identify the plant they were on. I did, a lily. The solution was instant: Purple-spotted Lily Aphid - Macrosiphum lilii bugguide.net/node/view/417220
