Roesel's Bush-cricket at RSPB Dungeness in the discovery area a couple of weeks ago.

Bearded Tits were widely scattered at RSPB Dungeness over the last few weeks. The best time to see them was early in the morning, about 7 am, after the sun had warmed things up and before the breeze got up. This was one of a group of four that was moving around Hookers.
