Neat Aphids!

Yeah, these guys
usually herd up like this and make for nice patterns against the leaves. They have a stark look when against the dark green. It has been so warm around here, they seem to be breaking their usual routine of bundling up together under a couple of leaves for warmth.
Edit: Note how they tend to line up along the veins of the leaf.
