A fly had the really intelligent idea to land on a leaf, and moves a lot to try to get out of there ; it  causes a reaction absolutely unique in the genus Drosera : the external tentacles fold onto the poor insect just in a few seconds because they are touched by its legs.

The fist part is done and now, the fly will not have any chances to escape.
The leaf folds in its length to allow more surface area for the digestion.

The leaf is now completly folded, the 2nd part of the capture is achieved.
And it's really the 3rd part that is the most interesting.

he leaf folds even more and covers almost the whole insect. The digestive glands are activated and the digestion process starts.

The leaf will remain in that position during a week (sometimes even less) and then, will start to decompose to allow more place for the new traps... mortal for the insects, but fascinating for us!
