Just thought I'd post this excellent example of just how much a  capensis leaf can move.  This little guy caught a moth and strangled it.

 Though I doubt it was a very tasty meal...

And this is just a pic of A Big Pot o' Sticky Goo.

 I'd hate to be the bug that landed in that.

Holy smokes, that's a lot of capensis

Ya, they love wrapping up their prey. I had one that wrapped it's fly up in 40 minutes! Mine usually does a 480 degree wrap.
 
Yep Larry...two pots bursting with wickedness.

I tried photographing them but they didn't come out. Also wanted a good pic of my D. regia but those sucked too. Hopefully I can get some good ones soon.
