This flat, shield-shaped bug is common throughout England and Wales, but less so in Scotland.
It is bright green and stippled with tiny black dots in spring and summer, but changes to greeny-bronze in autumn. Its wing tips are dark brown.
Adult shield bugs hibernate in grass tussocks or leaf litter and emerge in May.
Females lay clusters of small, barrel-shaped eggs on the undersides of leaves. These hatch into wingless nymphs, which crawl between plants to feed, and become the new generation of adults in September. These bugs can often be seen basking in the sun during late summer before they hibernate. Both adults and nymphs suck plant sap.
It is sometimes called a green stink bug as it produces a pungent odour from special glands if handled or disturbed.
The plant is known as Burdock (Arctium)

took the umbrella outside, opened it up, only to find this yucky stinkbug crawling around on it - maybe my least fav bug!
HSoS!
I had no idea what kind of bug this was... it let me get close and personal... it was on the motel front step... this seems to be the year of the bug of all walks and kinds... I am constantly on guard for all our creepy guests.... including the 2 legged kind... haha...

Nothing makes me happier than finding a small creature that is willing to pose for my camera.
This stink bug was one of the first visitors to my parents memorial garden which I just expanded and added new plants to. Photographed in Maryland.
Although in the same subfamily, this Stink Bug is completely different in colour and markings from the distinctively patterned one uploaded yesterday.
Stink Bug was about 3/8" long

Most of the flowers have died back now, but the rudbeckias are still hanging in there. This bright bloom was visited by an Orange-belted Bumblebee and what appears to be some kind of stinkbug. I couldn't get in any closer because the light was very low on the horizon and I didn't want to create a shadow.
Thank you for taking the time to view this image and for leaving me a comment! Have a great day!
Look at the date, I had a winter visitor in my house. These bugs like to find a way inside when the weather gets cold.
