August 2019
The ants are loving the newly opened S. Judith Hindle pitcher. (OK "loving" is not the best way to describe being lured to an untimely death). There are a bunch of ants exploring Zone 1 and there are a ton of ants trapped trapped inside Zone 4. Check out the ant-tivity below.

The next day, the ants are mostly gone at the Hooker zone 3-4 boundary, replaced with many water droplets. There were a few water droplets in the Aug. 10 video but not like the Aug 11. What happened? There are a few ants roaming around, but not as before. Unfortunately, I can't go any deeper inside because of the shape of this pitcher. It narrows below the 7mm width of the pencam before

Water droplets are frequently seen in Judith Hindle. Not sure why yet.
Here is the growing new pitcher for context.
