Sand Springs, Osage County, Oklahoma, USA

Size: 2mm (3/32")
Critter is on a yellow car. I don't like taking pics of critters when they're on this car because the yellow color seems to overpower the critter and details but you have to take them where you can get them I guess.
Please help with ID.

ID
Acyrthosiphon pisum.

Yep...
Pearlike shape, cornicle presence, and long antennae make this an aphid. Don't be too concerned about background colors - if you want to know what it is, just take the shot - I'm sure one of us will be able to figure out what it is eventually.
