Description
A Jeep shines its headlights toward Carolina Beach Inlet out at the North End, Freeman Park at the tip of Carolina Beach as a waning full moon rises over the ocean. I've got to remember to thank the owner of the Jeep for helping with this shot!
"Full Worm Moon � 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; or the Full Crust Moon, because the snow cover becomes crusted from thawing by day and freezing at night. The Full Sap Moon, marking the time of tapping maple trees, is another variation. To the settlers, it was also known as the Lenten Moon, and was considered to be the last full Moon of winter." ~Old Farmer's Almanac
