An Education

First time I've ever seen one of these in real life today. Up until a few weeks ago I'd never had known what this guy was. But someone blipped one of these recently (a better image than this I must confess). I'm slightly embarrassed to say I don't remember who it was (maybe I'll be reminded in the comments).

Anyway, when I saw him, I thought he'd do for today's blip. Like I already mentioned, the previous blipper had a better image but I wanted to show an example of how educational blipfoto can be. For anyone who hasn't seen one of these before... He's called a Shield Bug.
