gotta be real I have never been to massachusets in my life but your vibes are chill. I support massachusets
You can't get too rowdy around these parts or you will upset the cranberries. Gotta stay chill to stay on the good side of The Bogs

Part 1: Early Summer Wildflower Palooza, Cranberry Glade. It's orchid week at Cranberry Glades! Ok - the event may not be quite as exciting as Shark Week on Discovery, but plant nerds such as me experience something approaching tingly nipples at the prospect of getting up close and personal with grass pinks and snakemouths. A sampling of the many orchids now in bloom . . .
From top: greater purple fringed orchid (Platanthera grandiflora), a tall, leafy-stemmed beauty with clustered, intricately-fringed lavender flowers; downy rattlesnake plantain (Goodyera pubescens), a common terrestrial orchid of eastern woods with a striking, reticulated pattern in its leaves (this one is getting ready to bloom); the flamboyantly-beautiful tuberous grass pink (Calopogon tuberosus var. tuberosus), whose nectarless flowers deceptively imitate the magenta color of those of other bog plants, such as meadow phlox (following post), to draw pollinators; a ragged fringed orchid (Platanthera lacera), also known as green fringed orchid, whose fragile, frilly green-white flowers are hard to spot in the bog underbrush; the dainty rose pogonia (Pogonia ophioglossoides), also known as snakemouth orchid, due the tooth-like protuberances on its lower lip (note the sneaky goldenrod crab spider (Misumena vatia) hiding in the flower in the second photo, waiting to pounce on an unsuspecting bee, the orchid's primary pollinator); and northern tubercled orchid (Platanthera flava), another orchid with green-white flowers that can be difficult to spot in the bog underbrush.

Here's my spidersona! Still haven't watched the new spiderverse but I was feeling Inspired today
Her name is Fran Finkle, she got bitten by a radioactive wolf spider while working in the Central Park Cranberry Bog and now has the proportional strength of a spider and an innate ability to sense water acidity levels!

Inktober 2023 Day 2: Spiders
Did you know that cranberry bogs use wolf spiders as a natural pesticide? Well I learned that fact today so that’s where this came from. Along with the fact wolf spiders will carry their unborn babies with them wherever they go ❤️

Walked on yet to be used paths in the cranberry bogs and found a small house. It was chock full of crates, old designs on them. Probably used to carry the berries.
There are lots of cranberry bogs where I live, you find nice stuff there. Just don't go after it rains hard, even with drains it's easy to flood the lakes and onto the paths.

I must ask, what is the punishment of disrespecting a Dunkies?
An offense like that? They put you in the bog. You'll be sleeping with the cranberries.
