BBC News - Killer plant 'eats' great tit at Somerset nursery. Also, I show you some carnivorous plant. Three things matter for that plant: environment, variation and skin tone. Like in Photoshop

BBC News - Killer plant 'eats' great tit at Somerset nursery

Stamps showing Great Tit (Parus major):

"The Great Tit (Parus major) is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. It is a widespread and common species throughout Europe, the Middle East, Central and Northern Asia, and parts of North Africa in any sort of woodland. It is generally resident, and most Great Tits do not migrate except in extremely harsh winters. "

And you thought that all plants are some stupid, static, helpless things...Read cruel, merciless tales about various carnivorous plants with weird names.
Can't touch this!

"The snap traps of Dionaea muscipula close rapidly when the sensitive hairs on the leaf lobes are triggered."

So, if you touch the hair on the lobes, muscipula will not only get the best of you - it will get the whole of you!

What if every human would "wear the soul on the sleeve", as a symbolic image?
What image would you choose to represent YOU?
What would you say if somebody would wear a Carnivorous Plant symbol on their "sleeve"?
Look at the stamp in the image below.
I have juxtaposed a postmark to help you locate the stamp and the sleeve/wide wristband (how would you call that thing?) in this image...
I couldn't find a matching postcard yet, but look at the floral motif on the sleeve.
Is that a carnivorous plant? I guess not. I have no idea what plant species is that.
