my sarracenia tarnok... the latest pitcher just opened up yesterday, today i came home, and it was FILLED, leaving about half an inch until the top of the pitcher... the pitcher is about 7 inches tall... all my other sarracenia have also been catching alot of insects lately, but WOW, filled to the top in 1 day.my VFT also caught like 6 mosquitos... in 1 night...

any of yours caught alot of bugs lately?
 
Sir Charles is almost always nearly full up and one of my Sarrs catches gnats all the time :)

It's prime time for leucos, so expect more to come. :D
 
Yep. all of my Sarras are filled to the brink, thank god for the new fall pitcher shooting up. Everytime i go outside i hear the Buzz of something trapped in my pitchers...it usually is a yellow jacket, my VFTs and Sarras have caught tons of things recently....ear wigs, yellow jackets, a couple of moths and a butterfly even.
 
My alata x oreo is a wasp mass murderer. Takes only a day or two for a new pitcher to be filled.
 
Not a sarr, but my N. sanguinea had 3 wasps in it when I took it in for the year.

impossible statement... pitcher's full. its topped off with a dead fly. by top i mean, you dont even have to move the lid to the side to see the inside of the tube. you just look at it straight and it'll be there. all 3 pitcher's full. dana delight is filling up half way, same with judith hindle. VFT caught a spider with a big red&black butt, looks really scary..
 
I watch the wasps and yellowjackets fly around, land, take a peak inside, and then fly to another pitcher, land,....

LOL. Watch out for birds trying to get an easy meal. In doing so, they may tear up the pitchers. :)

Lol, that reminds me of when a hummingbird came and licked my VFT.
