Crickets continued...

I found this little beauty the other day while mooching around Southwater CP, I put her in the fridge, and as it was miserable this morning I decided she could be my blip before I released her!
I was surprised to find this Long-winged conehead (Conocephalus discolor), while walking through the long grass, as it isn't a cricket I see very often.
At 16-22mm the long-winged conehead is one of our smaller crickets, easily identified by it's green colour, slender body, pointed head and long brown wings.
I think it is an attractive cricket, and as it is not seen that often a really nice find.
