Aha! Thanks to all of you and your advice! I found it via
Google. . .a green tiger beetle, Cicindela sexguttata. I've been
gardening many years but have never seen one before. I should have
captured it for a photo to submit.

Thanks again!

They are ground beetles for the most part and they are beautiful.
