Stinkbug, probably Brochymena quadripustulata

This large stinkbug, approx. 15 mm in size, was sitting on top of sap running down the bark of a maple tree. He was one of the few insects I saw today at FWG. I was hoping for more, but I guess it was still cool enough this morning that it kept many early insects in hiding. There were some flies out, a few small black beetles, perhaps Carabid beetles, and this guy. There were also a lot of spiders around, and for sure some would have been wolf spiders (Lycosidae).
