This is probably Jadera haematoloma. It's certainly a true bug -- Hemiptera. Thanks for looking, but you aren't going to see any larger sizes -- I decided to crop this seriously.
Isn't God a great artist?

Red-shouldered bug the short-winged form (brachyptera) usually is 7–8 millimetres (0.28–0.31 in) long. Soapberry bug is a species of true bug that lives throughout the United States and south to northern South America. It feeds on seeds within the soapberry plant family.
Yet more critters from a 2006 trip to the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas (USA). This batch was all found in the vicinity of a maintenance shed at Bentsen-Rio Grande Valley State Park. The shed has security lights at night, so was a good place to find lingering insects in daytime. (A park ranger escorted us to this area, normally off-limits to visitors.)

Church of St. Mary is a benedictine monastery founded beside an existing church in 1066 by the Zadar noblewoman Čika. The monastery subsequently received royal protection and grants by king Petar Krešimir IV.
In 1507, a new Renaissance portal and a southern facade were added by the Korčula-born builder and stone worker Nikola Španić. The interior is decorated by rich baroque motives from 1744.
