Moved from ID Request.

Leaffooted Bug nymph
I think that's not a Squash Bug. That's Leaffooted Bug nymph. Maybe Leptoglossus phyllopus?



Oops! Ken's more likely!!

Leaffooted Bug nymph
Legs on this beetle indicate Coreidae - Leaffooted Bug. This is an immature bug.

 
Acanthocephala species.
Likely A. declivis (based on the tibial flanges):


 
I would agree with Ken
Also visible and diagnostic are the tubercles on the pronotum.
