Timelapse macroscopic footage of a fly (Diptera) trapped on the leaf of a common sundew (Drosera rotundifolia). Sundews are carnivorous plants that attract insects with a sweet sticky solution carried on the end of tentacles. When an insect lands, it becomes stuck to the tentacles, which then close around it. The plant then releases digestive enzymes that extract nutrients from its prey. | |
