This fella was sitting on a driveway I was walking past with my siblings. My older brother identified it immediately as a stinkbug (he and my parents have a long history with them). When it comes to most things nature related, I don’t question him.
I would have liked to stay far away from it, but alas, we had to use ourselves as human shields to keep our little siblings back, lest it release its foul-scented scourge upon us.
Because for some reason, they thought it sounded like a good idea to try and scare it, just to see if it would actually stink up the place.
How about no.
That’s what the zoom on a camera is for, friends.
