  • Round Leaved Sundew, Drosera rotundifolia, Hothfield Heathlands, Kent UK, Kent Wildlife Trust, On each leaf, hair-like tendrils tipped with glistening droplets attract passing insects. But this 'dew' is very sticky and when the sundew's tendrils detect the presence of prey, it curls them inwards, trapping the insect. Eventually, the whole leaf wraps around the prey; the enclosed insect is digested and the nutrients absorbed by the plant. The acidic habitats the Round-leaved Sundew lives in don't provide enough nutrients, so it has evolved this carnivorous way of life to supplement its diet

  • Close up of a female cleg-fly (Haematopota pluvialis) biting the arm of a person in a damp woodland habitat in Norfolk. This nasty little fly is a close relative of the horse flies and is one of the most universally disliked of insects. Only the females bite. They fly silently and the first indication we get of its presence is a sharp jab from its blade-like mouthparts. The itching after the bite, last for days.
