Green Stink Bug

[Trent Watts]

After picking and cleaning s bucket of Haskap berries I noticed this colourful green bug crawling on my counter. I had it climb onto a stick and then put it on a succulent plant that is in my kitchen where I could get a shot with my macro setup.
BugGuide tells me it is a Banasa dimidiata.

Outstanding close-up shots. Nice the bug was cooperative with your efforts to get good close-up views.

Fabulous macros, Trent! Getting this guy eye-level was essential to elevate the shot from good to excellent. The detail and clarity are amazing—great job capturing such a unique little bug. That macro setup paid off!

Wow Trent! Now that's a super cool looking bug!

I am constantly amazed at the amount of bugs and insects you are finding all around you.
