Slender grasshopper, Queens Park

I might not be seeing many birds at the moment, but I keep finding interesting things around the house. This little grasshopper, no more than 1.5cm long is slender grasshopper Tetrix subulata,  apparently the first record for St Helens. I'm not sure what it was doing in my backyard! The white on its face is paint. I can't find any other records of the species from St Helens.
