bugface

this bug was on my washing and waited while I went to get my camera. I presume it's a shield bug but I think it looks like a face on its back don't you?

[Sam]

I can see the face too Chris!

[Jenfurj]

Very Aztec looking too.

[Sue Cooper]

Interesting bug, never seen anything like it before. Great close up.

thanks for checking out my little bug. There are 7000 species of these shield bugs or stink bugs. knocked him off the washing very carefully in case he decided to leave his stink behind

[Jorlam]

He really shows up well against the dark fabric, as does the face on his back.. he looks so angular, so different to many other bugs, beautiful though...

[Veena Gupta]

Great capture!

[Chris K]

@jorlam @veengupta thankyou both for commenting. I am glad he waited around while I ran for my camera.

[Helen Jane]

I see the face. I guess it is deliberate to scare away the preditors.

I guess it's supposed to scare you off!
