  3. Aww. That’s sad. I would have had to save the poor fly. I’m a bug lover. 🙂

    I saw this photo on my iPhone first and that little thing sticking outside the plant looked like an inchworm. Then I got to look at the photo again on my computer – what a difference. Size does matter! Amazing photo!

    Happy Halloween, Cathy!

  8. How I envy you! Frankly, I wish it was the fly that’s been buzzing around my apartment for almost an entire week. I don’t know how it got in, but it’s in no hurry to get out.

      Yep, I think I’m going to name my new Venus Flytrap “Fang.” She’s a beauty and I’m glad she is enjoying a hearty fly meal. While I don’t really wish any harm to most of God’s creatures, flies buzzing me in the middle of the night bring out the “dark side” in me…

    SNAP TRAP AND EAT 🙂 I did a blog on these and am still enamored by a carnivorous plant. Hence the theory of evolution ! 🎃

      This is my first Venus Flytrap, Kathryn. It’s truly fascinating. They’re a lot smaller than I had imagined, but big enough to catch a fly. It’s true about evolution – if you can’t get nitrogen (from protein) in the soil go for what’s in the air! 😈
