Ground muncher.

At the other end of the spectrum, this plant world miniature, ground carnivorous plant wasn't all that far from the Fig Bird. These were so tiny as to be almost invisible unless down on all fours. They were alive in one little moist area about a metre square beside the track and that was it. I guess they eat ants! Or other small insects that blunder into them of course...ants are close!

 

Thanks to Basil for identifying this as a Sun Dew.
