Insect ID
It's a stink bug (family Pentatomidae). Most species with that general appearance are plant feeders and some can be serious pests. There also are predatory species, but these usually have sharper 'shoulders', and they can stick their 'beak' out in front of their head; plant feeders cannot do this.
