Moon in the Treetops

Earlier this month, I noticed the moon shining through my office window like a spotlight from the sky first thing in the morning. The first time – on January 2 – I didn’t wait around for it to sink into the treetops.

But on the 3rd I was more patient. The tall tulip poplars behind our house were catching the moon before the sky brightened.

By the 6th the morning was already well underway before I took my picture.

Catching the moon is a great way to start the morning.
