Update:
This morning I went to see if there was any beetle activity on the asparagus. There were some larvae, and the air was mostly still, so I took some more shots.
To cut a long story short, I also got a good sequence of a larva splitting its skin and emerging as the next instar. I hope to post the images early next week.

I am wondering whether the apparent droplet in the last image is the start of ecdysis, with the head capsule detached ventrally and hinged backwards.
