This is one of the Macrosiphum species that feed on Rose.

Might this be a rose aphid?

I'm totally ignorant on this and color looks different, but check out:

I think

you might be right, Ron.

Well, that would be a first!

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Lynette.

I may have spoke too soon. :) I guess there are quite a few aphids that feed on rose. The green peach aphid is also very commonly found on rose. You can see them here.
