Full Crow Moon

    Newer Older

    March: As the temperature begins to warm and the ground begins to thaw, earthworm casts appear, heralding the return of the robins. The more northern tribes knew this Moon as the Full Crow Moon, when the cawing of crows signaled the end of winter. [Farmer's Almanac]

    Actually this is a Rook, not a Crow. But at least it was taken in March ;-)

    Thanks to Andrew McConnochie for the texture rough crack white.

      To Dave. We just finished our 30th annual "Full Moon of the Crow" Mountain Man Rendezvous. Would you allow us to use your picture and post it on our own Mountain Man club website? It's really a beautiful picture. Rusty.
