when all the cranberries are floating on the water of the flooded bog they are corraled with wooden or plastic booms and dragged to one side in preparation to be conveyed or sucked up into the trucks...
Great shot! I have a lonely planet calendar up at the moment and for October they are in New England and there is a photo of cranberry harvesting but it does not compare to any of the great photos you have posted. Well done.
What a great and colorful photo. I didn't have any idea they harvested cranberries this way. The red versus the blue water and the trees beginning to get the fall colors is a feast for the eyes. Great post.
This has been very educational for me Mary! It really is an unusual crop to see in nature because there just aren't as many cranberry bogs as there are corn fields! Thanks for this beautifully colored trip.... ~Mary~
