Fancy the entomological opportunity of a lifetime? After 3 adventure-filled years, Gabby is moving on to take up a new challenge. We need someone to pick up the torch and continue to carry RIC through its incredible journey.

Apologies for the shaky footage, we got in a flap ourselves capturing this Dark- edged bee-fly as they are usually too fast to film.This one was warming up for flight on a garden wall in Newport and despite its name and looks it's not a bee it's actually a fly!#MyWildNewport

On the bright side, I learnt a wonderful new word from this article: 'phantasmagoric ' - having a fantastic appearance, as something in a dream or created by the imagination✨
