Here's my first catch of the season by the lovely drosera aliciae, I actually watched this bugger get caught, he set off two Flytraps before doing so, anyways post any catches you've gotten since spring started!

Looks like a young huntsman spider. Why would it set off VFT traps when it's on a Drosera?

It had built a web in the VFT pot and it managed to travel to the sundews pot and get caught

Opps! But it's interesting that it woven a web nearby to prey but got preyed on

epic!

Anyway if you are curious how a huntsman looks like , here's some from google
