Full Pink Moon

Tonite, April 25, 2013 will be the night of the Full Pink Moon.

Named the Pink Moon because it heralded the appearance of the moss pink, or wild ground phlox-one of the first spring flowers.

Others names are Full Sprouting Grass Moon (yep that would be my yard), Full Egg Moon, Full Fish Moon.

I wonder if it is called Full Egg Moon because chickens start laying more? Thoughts on this chicken gals?

And maybe it was called Full Fish Moon because fish become active? Our pond is getting active. We are starting to see more fish swimming and yesterday a fish jumped out to catch a bug. Never get to see them but we do hear them do this.

Just might be something to these other names.....

Have a great night, go out and check that moon out, I know I will.

 



Birds Singing

Could Spring be here? At 7:45 p.m. the birds were still singing. I think it can only mean one thing. SPRING has sprung. First day of Trout season, and my great nephew caught four nice size trout. Birds singing, boys fishing, doesn't get too much better then that in my book. Also, new header picture, Early Spring at ginnysyard.
