Thank you, Ken! After looking
Thank you, Ken! After looking at the photos I think it is an exact match. It seems to have taken up residence on my zucchini plant. Is it weird that part of me is now eager to see the eggs & nymphs grow and to heck with the squash?

Not at all.
Of course, that's coming from a BG regular, so it may not reflect popular opinion. :)
