Just in: sundew

in photography •  7 years ago 

The other day, I saw the first round-leaved sundew (Drosera rotundifolia), ronde zonnedauw in Dutch, in the peat bog, the first of this year, that is:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO160, f8, 1/160s

The little plants are growing on top of the peat moss, not on firm ground:

I hope they catch a lot of mosquitos, things are really getting out of hand with their numbers!

Are those that catch insects?

Yes look at the drops. It is a glue for insects.

Yes. At least, they try 8-).

:))

Those look cool! Reminds me of an anemone in the ocean. Wish we had those here in Michigan!!

These are in South Bohemia peat bogs too but are super tiny, you have to carefully crawl step by step in very wet terrain. You made these photos, so you know it well.
