Look closely at the stinkbugs in your house...there is a great deal of beauty there. Halyomorpha halys
Why these guys were on my (already struggling) rosemary instead of my tomato plants I'll never know... but I thought before I get rid of them, I'd get a few shots. :) Until I decide to shell out for Lightroom, though, this is the only one I have the patience to edit in GIMP.

Brown marmorated stink bug (halyomorpha halys) - a visitor to our garden that was doing no harm, but which is widely regarded as an agricultural pest, often causing damage to fruit crops.
I heard that last winter's polar vortex has cut back the stink bug population tremendously. I'm hoping this guy is one of the few survivors.
You know, it must be rough being known around town as "Stinkbug". I mean, doesn't that just have a double connotation that leads to a negative impression? A bug. Can be cute, right? Rarely are they wanted guests, though. "Stink", though, really sinks it. I mean, how much of a reputation would you have even if your name was odor? Stinkbug has a bad rap.
In America its known as the Green Stink Bug because of its malodorous smell. Its a pest and eats fruit and plants.
This Stinkbug was kind enough to stay still while I composed this image. This one is one of my best, so far, with the technique of stacking my 3X and 2X teleconverters behind my 1:1 macro yielding up to a 6X macro. Imaged on October 05, 2008, in rural upstate Columbia County, NY, USA. Camera: Canon 350D and Pre-AI Micro-Nikkor 55mm f3.5 lens and Nikon PK-3 1:1 tube and Samigon F mount 3X teleconverter and Vivitar 2X F mount teleconverter plus Fotodiox Nikon mount to Canon mount adapter ring, hand held and braced against a cinder block wall, manually focused, manual mode, 1/200 sec, ISO 400, with fill-in flash from camera's built-in electronic flash.

Green Shield Bug Palomena prasina otherwise known ans The Stink Bug they give off an osour if moed or provoked!
I found this one on a nasturtium, tasty little flower.
Gone to the 'Dark side'
It wouldn't sit still, so this was the only shot I could get of this very dark stinkbug.
Spined Soldier Bug (Podisus Maculiventris), a variety of stink bug. Identifiable by the outward pointing spines near the top. Unlike the more well known Brown Marmorated Stink Bug that's an invasive pest, the Soldier Bug is beneficial and eats several common garden pests. On the lower right is a Turks Cap flower.
Four-humped Stinkbug (Brochymena quadripustulata). Bug Safari Day, Catoctin Mountains, Frederick County, Maryland.
body size: 2X1.5 cm (roughly)
Erthesina fullo:Because the stinkbug will secrete the special smell to drive away the natural enemy, there is call of ' the bedbug ', though call is not very pleasant, their life is quite interesting! Take macula lutea stinkbug as an example, the female stinkbug often gives birth to 12 ovums, the little stinkbug that just hatched out once, still assemble together.
The bug (including lizard,beetle...) was hidden beneath the decayed old tree bark ,which being used as a shelter against the cold front when the night time temperature may drop to 10 C.
黃斑椿象（學名：Erthesina fullo），又名黃斑椿、麻皮蝽，中小型的樁象，體長約1.5～2.5公分，身體呈灰黑色，散佈著黃色斑紋，體內含有臭腺，會發出惡臭。春夏季為繁殖期，常可在樹葉上看到椿象一顆顆排列整齊淡黃綠色的蟲卵。生活環境為平地或低海拔地區。
Having been so impressed with our first visit to the preserve on several days prior, we had to get back for a second look, knowing that we would most likely find some new insects, birds, and plants, for the first trip was rather overwhelming in the spectacular variety of nature’s gems. The follow up visits are usually ones where individuals can look at things with a better understanding, knowing where to look and what to avoid.
This visit was full of such scenes, from at least 5 species of insects.
This wonderful nature preserve of both grassland (111 acres) and woodland (53 acres) was purchased in 2003 by Franklin Township, and has become a “MUST SEE” site for us, since the landscape is so perfect in attracting all kinds of grassland birds, insects, and plants, and the setting is one that is rather off the beaten path; therefore, it allows visitors to enjoy the beauty in a quiet state. The grassland reminds one of a miniature version of sections cut out from the Great Plaines States.
Relatively close to Duke Farms—about 13 miles away—it is not too far to make it a stop for a day excursion, even if combined with DF or other nearby wildlife refuges.

Eggs of Stinkbug - Pentatomidae species (diameter ~1 mm)
These were on the underside of the leaf of a woody plant--I did not record ID on that.

I found this handsome "true bug" (Heteroptera, Hemiptera) on a leaf of Coast Live Oak (Quercus agrifolia, Fagaceae) in the woods today. It's no doubt some kind of Stink Bug in the family Pentatomidae, but it has more interesting colors than most - dark, like it's made of bronze, with blue and red highlights. I searched all my photos, and I don't think I've ever seen one like it before. (San Marcos Pass, 7 February 2021)
It was a few degrees cooler today than yesterday, but still unseasonably warm and dry. Wind was not an issue. There is a chance of a bit of rain on Friday and again on Sunday.
