Zelus longipes
Milkweed Assassin Bug
This is a pretty common garden predator that I come across fairly often.
This is another example of the nymph stage. This one is almost to adulthood, where it will gain fully grown wings.
They're highly visible, so they tend to flip to the opposite side of the leaf they are on if they see you. However, if you remain and stay still, they might eventually return to the top of the leaf as this one did.

Yet I'm no less scared.
I remember as a dumb child who had not yet learned that there were predatory critters among true bugs, I picked up a large, gray assassin bug from my front yard tree.
Two hours of searing pain later, I decided to read up.
If it's bright, it may bite and if it doesn't run, it's probably no fun.
