An errant fly got into the house, and found its way by my carnivorres...I was watching which one it will favor...and will any of my carnivores have a lunch delight:

The carnivore lair, I brought down Pinguicula gigantea as well, normally it is upstairs:

So the fly went in and around one of Nepenthes max x vent pitchers, such a tease! It choose a partially dried out pitcher so it just went in and around. But it was really attracted to the pitcher:

I was hoping it will move to the other fresh pitcher, but no dice..I guess it knows it is safer in the partly dried out one:

Too bad, it did not become a meal today..I was hoping it might also get stuck at least on the Pinguicula,..oh well..better luck next time CP's!
