Good morning, Hope all are doing good. Just snapped this bugs yesterday. But not able to identify it. Try Google lense but it is detecting the stick not the bug. Any one by any chance have any idea about it.

This is unique. I myself have not seen this one. I have seen only the black and red one.

I think that it's what is known as a shield bug or a stink bug. It seems to me to be most like the very first picture on this page:
