 As dusk envelopes the
        cobra plant forest, cheerful songs and dances of butterflies, dragonflies
        and bees are hastily replaced by buzzing sound of mosquitoes, gnats
        and other nocturnal creatures of the forest. Silent blossoms of the cobra plants
        continue into the dead of night, signaling the onset of the trapping
        season soon to follow.
