If you fancy natural flying objects, go to BuGFesT! at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh on 3 August from 10 am to 5pm. Visit Café Insecta to sample creepy-crawly delights, chat with experts, place your bets on the Roachingham 500 roach races, and check out weird and wonderful live animals, from the foot-long Malaysian walking stick to the thickly haired, dinner-plate-sized Amazonian bird-eating spider.
