Shield bugs which I found on my French Beans these are juvenile southern green shield bug (Nezara viridula) which are a major pest across the world en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nezara_viridula and were not a welcome visitor to my very poor bean crop in 2020. They only appeared in England in London in 2003 and were the last straw for me first it was the weather, then slugs, then the weather again then these I drowned them.

Lady bug tending to my lettuce growing on the back patio

Identified by Al JC and others as a shield bug, that gives off a bad smell...glad I never touched it :). others have also referred to it as a stink bug.

Plant bug on camellia flower. Focus stacked using zerene

I've just come back from an amazing holiday in south east Asia, and during my travels in Borneo came across this unique and quite bizarre bug! I have no idea what it is, any help would be appreciated.

*EDIT: I would say that in size, this bug was approximately 10cm

A bug that looks like it should be shooting foam in a car wash.

Connected bugs macro

I noticed the other day that one of the trees at work had some cute little bugs on it, so I decided to take my camera into work today. I waited until lunchtime and then went and took some snaps. I had to climb in under the branches which where about shoulder height, it wasnt until I was surrounded by branches that i discovered that the leaves where teaming with bugs, which kind of freaked me out. I didnt take a lot of photos and will try again tommorrow
