Love this shot from earlier in the fall: Monarch butterfly sipping nectar from the extra-floral nectaries along lip of a #Sarracenia leucophylla #PitcherPlant. Main prey items for these #CarnivorousPlants are flies, bees & wasps, but butterflies sometimes visit too. This particular plant is an #anthocyanin free mutant lacking red pigmentation.

To me, cranberries are basically a cyanidin 3-glucoside sauce. #phytochemist #anthocyanin
