Twice-stabbed stinkbug (Cosmopepla lintneriana) - I think this is the adult version of the stingbug nymphs I found earlier on my columbine seed heads.
Photographed at Stalker Lake. These two species can only be separated by a view of the abdomen... not afforded here. Both species occur almost continent wide, suck the juices out of many plants, but only the Brown Stinkbug has a tendency to be a significant crop pest

8 mm adult. Inadvertently collected with Ilex verticillata berries. Common in eastern US. Well off ground in winterberry thicket beside five-acre marsh/maple swamp, Milton, MA 11/19/09
I was taking pictures out the window when this bug came flying in, crashed into the glass, landed on its back, turned itself around, walked to the edge, waited some time to build confidence, and then jumped and flew away.
The pink background is a very blurry brick wall.
Now why in the World do they call it a shield bug...? hmmm... ;-)
More critters found around the yard. These were on my columbines when I went to collect seeds. I'm pretty certain they are stink bug nymphs.
stinkbug. 2/23那天，和醫生走到我家附近的公車站牌時，看到了很多紅紅的蟲，我們想，這應該不是傳說中的紅火蟻，因為螞蟻就是螞蟻，不可能有這麼大隻的。後來我回家上網查資料，感覺這像是半翅目的椿象。今天電視新聞居然有報導，於是我查了一下新聞資料，果然，這是近來聚集在台灣欒樹下的紅姬緣椿象。
