Picture of the Day for March 9, 2020

Today’s full moon is also a super moon and so it is called Super Worm Moon. The worm part coming from a time when the ground is beginning to soften enough for earthworms to reappear and enticing robins to return. It is also called Sap Moon, so it could be Super Sap Moon instead as the sugar maple sap is beginning to flow. The warm temperatures yesterday didn’t bring any robins back yet, but the killdeer, red-winged blackbirds and a pair of geese did show up. My pond isn’t big enough to support the trumpeter swans but they sure would look prettier than the geese I get.
