What The Bug?

Can you help identify this bug? It's not in my 'Handbook of Natural Insects and Disease Control'.

OUrs is framed with 2x4's so it is kind of shallow. We grew some radishes in it which did okay for a while but the wind and sun left it pretty dry in the late summer. What type of plants did you grow in yours? Have you made any modifications? THanks for any input, your backyard is looking great--and the homebrew looks delicious!

I'd love to meet up with you sometime if you ever have the time, I'm about to start growing myself! Either way, it looks like you've been up to some really cool stuff. Way to go!
