Dam - it

a great name for this floating contraption that clears the dam. It was quite amazing to watch the procedure.

I've never seen that type of machinery--cool!

[Issi Bannerman]

Nice caption and a great shot!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Ha - great title ! - but the contraption is so unusual !

[Susan Wakely]

Interesting to see.

[Lesley]

Perfect title. What a fascinating machine. I could watch that for ages

[winghong_ho]

A clever design of the machine.

[Joan Robillard]

Good capture

[Yao RL]

Funny, I just read this from my Botswana safari book: is there any alegator? No, only crocodile. That is when the safari jeep stuck in the river. Your photo makes me wonder.

[Casablanca]

Wow, what a contraption!

[Zilli~]

Interesting

[Christine Sztukowski]

Nice capture

[Mags]

Well captured.

[KV]

So interesting… never seen anything like this.

[katy]

Interesting to see it in action, but I could see how it would be destroying lots of nests. How strange that we both posted machinery today

[Paul J]

Very interesting!

[Peter]

What a fitting name well spotted and captured Diana:)

[LManning (Laura)]

I bet it is fascinating to see.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

This is so interesting.

[Beverley]

Intriguing… to see

[Jerzy]

It looks like it would not get done any other way with manual labour. We have similar "contraptions" here but much larger that pull up mill foil weeds in lakes. Great capture of the work involved.

[Walks @ 7]

Very much like the name. Nice detail

[Merrelyn]

It's an interesting contraption. What happens to the reeds that are pulled out by the "fork"? Does this machine also scoop them up or is another machine needed for that job?

[Renee Salamon]

Brilliant name from the reed eating monster

[KoalaGardens🐨]

wow that's some contraption!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Very interesting- it's like a comb for the reeds!

[haskar]

An interesting engine.

[Heather]

How fascinating! And a great title, Diana!

[Allison Maltese]

Boy, I bet they can use those in Florida right about now with all of the floating debris.

@merrelyn Yes Merrelyn, the machine scoops it all up, loads it on a pickup and takes it somewhere ;-)

[leggzy]

What an interesting looking contraption.

[Kathy A]

That would be interesting to watch

[Jennifer Eurell]

We have a similar one that cleans the weeds out of our local Lilyponds (at Mapleton, Qld, Australia)

[Rick]

Wow, very interesting machine.
