Halyomorpha halys
Brown Marmorated Stinkbug, as it's politely known. We've seen five now, four in our office building and one in the window frame of our apartment! However, this is the first live one, and it was a bit dozy, after Lucy rudely woke it up from hibernation for me. It's about time it woke up, anyway!
This is probably the best known of the Chinese shieldbugs, due to being an invasive pest in the USA. There are loads of photos on Flickr, for example. It's obvioulsy pretty abundant around here as well, though! Will aim for a more photogenic setting than my laptop when they start emerging outdoors...
