Makes me feel so good - Another Bug Guide first, even if retroactive.

Moved from Stink Bugs.

I lean towards:
Nezara viridula, but pictures don´t allow for positive ID.

 
Thanks, Boris
I appreciate your expertise and application of it on my behalf. More and more I see the value of having specimens in hand, but this site and my inclinations don't favor me going that route.

Moved
to guide page.

Pentatomidae
This is one of the green stink bugs in the family Pentatomidae.
