Mother Nature

It has been a full moon the past couple of nights (The full Moon officially occurred on 23 March at 8:01 a.m.) and I read somewhere that if a full moon occurred in March, it was referred to as a "Worm Moon." According to the website almanac.com, "at the time of this spring Moon the ground begins to soften and earthworm casts reappear, inviting the return of robins." My yard has been full of robins but I have noticed an absence of worms. Now if there was an anteater in the front yard, he would be having the buffet about now.

The early morning colors were especially vibrant this morning with the Worm Moon as a centerpiece. It was a mixture of pinks, blues, and grays with an almost full moon that was shrouded in a heavy mist. It was one of those morning skies that really leaves an impression and something you wish you could capture with your mind's eye.
