Today's party animal (and they are "partying" indeed) is a yellow and black long-horned beetle, leading the novice naturalist in me to think...hmmm....maybe there's some causal relationship between the yellowness of goldenrod and its popularity with yellow and black creatures...
I looked up the beetle and it turns it is the destructive (if you value black locust trees) Black Locust Borer Beetle. While their main food is the black locust, they love the yellow stuff.
