300 pictures from Scotland, and this is what I post. Go figure.
See, I got invited to the cranberry bogs to see what the harvest was all about. Turned my boys into little migrant workers. They had a blast. Saw a bald eagle and a malard duck who just didn't seem to want to leave. It was a brilliant day. Did you know New Jersey could be so lovely? Enjoy!

  • This is so amazing. Cranberries under water? We have them here in Europe too but they grow in the forest. Wet forest yes but not under water. True, i never went to pick them myself to know how it is exactly. By the way i love the music. What is it? And what is that Enya song called?

  • The cranberries are only harvested under water.... the water allows them to float to the surface after the berries are beaten off the bush. They grow in dry bogs. ;)

  • gorgeous! berry beautiful photos:)

  • Thank you Berry much, Joe!

  • Actually, a bog is dry until it's flooded at the harvest. The sprinklers keep the cranberries from getting damaged with frostbite by putting a protective coating of ice over it. See, learn something new every day! ;)

  • Why are you irrigating your crop with sprinklers? Isn't it a wet enough already, being a BOG?

  • And now you have my alter ego on the case too! Abasudika is my other half (of me kinda thing). Two for the price of one! Yey! =:D

  • Ah, a bond already! Thank you for your kind comments. What a great thing to come home to.
