Our Meat Eating Plant

About 3 months ago we got this Venus Flytrap, which didn't eat and slowly dried up and died...almost! New growth started to form and the plant keeps getting bigger and healthier. Last week it closed tight around its first victim, a common house fly. This week this carnivorous plant ate another fly! You can see the two buldging pods as our plant slowly digests the two victims.
