Finally… A Blossom!
I can not tell you how many times I have visited this beaver pond to get a photo of the sundew flowers. In the morning they were just opening, in the evening they were closed and producing seeds. The flowers are self pollinating (what insect would want to get close to them?) so it seems the best time is in the warm afternoon.
"Drosera rotundifolia", the round-leaved sundew or common sundew, is a species of sundew, a carnivorous plant often found in bogs, marshes and fens. One of the most widespread sundew species, it is generally circumboreal, being found in all of northern Europe, much of Siberia, large parts of northern North America, Korea, Japan and is also found on New Guinea.
