stink bug

I found this guy sitting on the Diosma's this morning...he was more than happy for me to take photo's of him, not sure what his real name is, we just call them stink bugs & boy, do they stink if you handle them!!!
only when you squash them as far as i no ................. nice pic

We call them stink bugs too Sherrill, for that exact same reason. Man, this guy looks like he is wearing armour - I can imagine him leading some army in A Bugs Life. Wonderful focus.

@hudd thanks he was a willing model...never moved at all

@michelleyoung thanks Michelle, I took a lot of photo's to get the one I was happy with

@murnane Marg, your comment made me laugh, I really can picture him in A Bugs Life. Didn't think about that until you put it in my head :)

@carolhika I can imagine that...phew!!! what a smell. We were always told not to touch them & that if you did they would wee on you & that's what the stink was.

@zitrv thanks Argie...next lens on my list is a macro so I can really get in close :)
