I have to show you all this:), and ayone with young kids ought to go get one, it's great entertainment. Rember when I was telling you all I was looking for a Venus Fly Trap plant for Blake. Well I found one yesterday at Lowes. Only $5.00. Blake thought it was cool, altho yesterday we didn't actually try giving it a fly. Well just a few minutes ago, I caught a fly in the plastic top of the little terrerium that it came in and put the it back on with the fly in it. I watched it awhile then turned my head for just a second and when I looked back one of the traps was shut tighter then a tic, and you could see the fly in it:) The one we got currently has 2 traps, so I've got another fly in right now and watching....
Here's the little terrerium it came in.
The tallest one is the trap that has the fly in it, you can see the short one is open. There are 2 more tiny ones that are in the growing stage.

Here is a good look at the open one.

Neat! But those fly traps really give me the creeps!
