Grasshopper

Could anyone help identify this little grasshopper like insect , not the best photo as it was taken quickly using my phone.
My guess is it's a Slender ground hopper.

Eccleston Mere - possible whinchat

I saw a possible whinchat at Eccleston Mere this morning – it was very distant but I can't think of what else it could be.

 

Also these feathers were there – does anyone know what they are from?

Havañnah flash

Every year at nesting time, some mindless person decides to set fire to large areas of Havannah flash.
This morning I noticed the embankment near Waggon lane had been burned, this area was fine yesterday morning, surley member's of the public must see what's going on, ( just ring the Police).
