That is so interesting, "Full, boney moon." Also,the wren photo
is breathtaking. Glenda Barrett
Thanks Glenda. Gosh, it is good to hear from you. What a winter this has been! I can't wait to see you when the weather warms. Remember, I told you we'd sit on my dek and have a glass of iced tea one day. I am now beginning to believe it will happen.
Love your blog...such amazing photographs! All I shoot these days are food...you remind me to not forget the world around the plate!
Nancy, do you know Mary Oliver's Wolf Moon? One of my favorites. I'm trying to do a Wolf Moon too without echoing hers. Hard.
Love the photos! K.
Nancy, full moons are gorgeous to see. Your photos are beautiful. I always enjoy stopping by and seeing life through your lens.

Hello Tonya, Thanks for stopping by my site and thank you for becomming a follower. I appreciate it very much and went right away to see your site. It is beautiful and delicious. I wish you the most success with it.
Hello Kay, Mary Oliver's Wolf Moon poems seemed so familiar to me, I thought for sure I had a copy of it.
But, no. It's not in the books I have. I remember reading it and some of her other moon poems. Well, three more nights an it'll be time to howl.
Nancy,
I enjoyed your posting about the full moon of February. It's so interesting the different names given to this moon. Great posting.
Thanks Brenda Kay. The moon is almost full now. It is beautiful.
I like the names too. Full Bony Moon. I'd like to get that into a poem.
