The July Full Buck Moon

Above: Wednesday evening's July Full Buck Moon taken from a high point in Hampstead

London. Apparently it was the largest of three of this Summer's Supermoons,

being at it's closest point in it's orbit around the Earth.

And for a while it was shrouded in cloud on Wednesday evening, but with a little

patience it soon showed itself fully.

Below is my favourite Full Moon taken earlier this year over the Easter weekend. And this

one was called a Pink Moon.

It's amazing how our Full Moons were given their names by early American Native Indians.

Apparently many tribes kept track of time by observing the seasons and the lunar months.

Below are some familiar words from a Cree Indian Proverb.
