'Stink Bug'

I've neglected the plants in the garden as far as blip's concerned.

Rudbekia is the late flowering perennial that brightens up the borders while autumn slowly creeps in. While photographing said plant, I noticed that there seemed to be a number of Shield bugs, a.k.a. Stink Bugs on the plants!!!

Why stink bugs? Because they smell like burning rubber if squished. A truly horrid and lingering smell.

I should point out that I have not personally squashed one!

Happy day to you all.
