3rd July 2014 - Topsham
Found this is the front garden this afternoon - I was actually listening for Wood-crickets (more later) - I popped back in for my camera and macro lens, eventually refound it and took some photos; no time to set up tripod, hand held 1/160 to 1/250 sec at f/8. It's always a job to get all the thing in focus at such close range, so quite pleased with result.

This is a common species and I've photographed it a few times in the area, surprisingly never recorded it in the garden before. Females (like this one) come in several varieties, this rather nice specimen is the form 'rufescens'
