This is a picture of a housefly (Musca domestica) resting on a Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula). This picture was taken inside my home in Holly Ridge, NC on May 30th, 2018 at roughly 12:00p.m. The ecological concept captured in this photo is an example of predation, in the form of carnivory. The venous flytrap is demonstrating a type 1 predator functional response. Because the venus flytrap is sedentary, it is a passive predator and its consumption rate is constant. Since planting the venous fly trap in my kitchen, the only flies it has consumed are the ones I have hand feed it. According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, less than five present of the flytraps diet in the natural environment are flying insects. Venus fly traps eat mostly ants, spiders, beetles and grasshoppers. This can be partially because flying insects can act as pollinators for the venus flytraps flowers. This photo is probably more accurately described as a mutualistic relationship photo rather than an example of a predation. I do not know how effective a house fly is at pollination, but the flytrap has evolutionarily engineered itself to target insects without wings. I do not know then how the name venous “fly” trap came to be, but it tricked me into planting one on my window sill. #ecology #bio366 #Su2018 #image4 #UNCW

Another one of my favorite venus flytrap cultivar. I love the combination of short, dentate fangs and red colour.
Poor fly is scared by the Venus-flytrap leaves. The focus is on the plant's plastic box/container which has this funny pattern printed on it.

Jim Fowler bought a venus flytrap and oblong-leaved sundew (Drosera intermedia) at the South Carolina Native Plant Society annual sale in Greenville. He planted them in his bog garden
In this set I wanted to show the difference between some of the Flytrap varieties. Some are more tall and erect, while others like the 'Big Mouth' are quite prostrate and to the ground.

Using my Canon Rebel XT with my original Canon 18-55mm F/3.5 - 5.6 lens, I was able to capture this shot of a Venus Flytrap flower, close-up and personal.
It is a birthday gift for my wife's cousin. Personally, I think it's better than buy him a PSP or Nintendo.

What do you get out of a Venus Flytrap if you stick your finger down its throat?
