Description
It's a bit of a mystery to me Georges, these green shieldbugs. From the late summer until the winter-cold arrives, they just sit there on there "favourite" spot. Alone in pairs or little groups (adults and juveniles) they just seem to do nothing for days even weeks! Suddenly they disappear and then I find them on other spots where they do the same "thing" again. They only move when I come to close with my cyclope-camera-eye. They seem to enjoy the sun though! Eventually they all turn brown in winter and hibernate, although in soft winters you can spot a few sitting and sunning again. In spring they all turn green again and get red legs and antenna's for the mating-season.
Greetings PapaGuru.
