Field Notes

Description:

The western conifer seed bug, Leptoglossus occidentalis, sometimes abbreviated as WCSB, is a species of true bug in the family Coreidae. - from Wikipedia

Notes:

I never thought I would spot this bug here in my place. This bug is not as colorful as I have seen in Project Noah, but it was a beautiful bug. I wish I could take more pictures, but after I took this picture, it flew away....
