Nice photos, those little guys can be hard to get in focus - especially with that skinny little spike. The slightest breeze gets them swaying. I pollinated mine this summer, I needed a magnifying glass!

Tell me about it   and the wind was not helping at all. The flowers were moving a lot. Had to wait for the wind to subside for a couple of minutes and snap the shots.

Wow, they do look like bladderwort flowers. Very true to the name. Nice.
