When it's disturbed it produces a terrible fragrance. Think therefore its popular name is stink bug.

Excellent macro again Christian.

I am afraid that I am running short of praises for your wonderful closeup portraits of our little brothers, even the stinking ones:)
Thanks, dear friend, for this beauty in smelling disguise:)

Outstanding macro Christian - I see it's common in Europe perhaps not in the state then?

Magnificent close up and such detail and brilliant colours plus post work. In full it looks like it could come out of the screen at me

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.
