I found this ladybug on my A. Nervosa leaf (on a nectar droplet) three days ago :

It's still here today.
Three possibilities : It poisonned itself with the nectar but I don't think so because this nectar is here to bait pest predators so it's not poisonous.
Or it was very hungry and it's still eating.
Or this little guy is tripping fucking balls since days. I know there is tiny to no amounts of LSA in this nectar but hey, a ladybug isn't that heavy.

I found this spider nest and monitored it and caught the babies running amongst!

Spider! Eating a smaller spider!
