Two new Orthoptera

In 2022 we found an Oak Bush Cricket; our first Orthoptera species that wasn’t a grasshopper. This week, David found two further species in his field… a Long-winged Conehead and a Roesel’s Bush Cricket.
Both of these species are not normally seen north of the Humber…. so a good find.
It’s likely that one or both of these species could be present in Bardsey Field as “scurryings” have been seen!
