What are these bugs?

What are these orange bugs?  I discovered them on the Butterfly Red Butterfly Flower ( Asclepias Curassavica) that I bought this year.  The Monarch Butterfly loves it.


The Monarch visits this flower everyday. 


This is the Flower and the pods that form after the flower blooms.

This is the pod opening just like the milkweed does

So What are these bugs?  Does anyone know?

    Pretty sure they are Aphids. That's the most common bug to be on Milkweed plants.
