Carnivorous Sundew
I could spend hours macro photographing the tiny Sundew plant! Unfortunately, I only get to see it when we go to the Elkton Bog, north west of the city, near Cremona. We've been lucky enough to botanize the bog area once each of the last couple of years, so I'm really hoping that we get a chance to go again this summer. It's definitely a very wet experience, as you sink partly under water, lol!
"The carnivorous sundew plant, botanical name Drosera, has about 130 species. All of the species of the sundew plant are beautiful and many look like fireworks, but they are deadly to the insects that fly near to them. One thing that all carnivorous sundew plants do have is the gel-like substance at the tips of the tentacles that cover the leaves. This gel is a sticky substance that the insects that fly too near the plant get stuck on. The plant can then eat it. The many species of the sundew plant can be found all around the world, on every single continent. This is unusual for a plant because most carnivorous plants are found only in one or two regions of the world because of the different climates that they must live in. The plant is called sundew because of the gel like substance on the tentacles. The gel makes the plants look as if they have morning dew on them all day long, especially when it glistens in the sun."

A date has now been set for my brother's funeral - February 3rd. Amazing how many things have to be decided upon for a funeral. My life-long friend Linda in Birmingham, England, is still working hard to make this the best possible (simple) farewell to my brother. She sent me a second draft of what will be said at the Service and, to read it, one would think that the person who is going to lead the Service had known John for years (he's never met him). He and Linda have done such an amazing job of this. When I read it through the very first time, I kept gasping, as the words so perfectly described my brother. Beautifully written, way beyond any possible expectation. My close friends will read out some "Memories" from myself and each of my three kids. I don't know how they will be able to do this - I know I would never be able to do it myself - far too emotional! Does anyone have any suggestions about possibly audio-taping the service? I had a look on the Internet yesterday to see what kind of little gadgets there are, preferably digital, not tape. Not a very successful search, though, so I must take another look. Linda and I had both had this idea to record, which would be wonderful if we can think how to do it.
