Conservationists in Kent say there are signs that rare bumblebees are making a comeback, thanks to work improving their habitat.

For two years running, the Bumblebee Conservation Trust has recorded sightings of one of Britain's rarest bees, the shrill carder, in an area south east of the county where it had not been seen for over a decade.

Dr Nikki Gammans from the trust said: "By creating more of the habitat that they like, the flower rich habitat, we can hopefully see some more."
