"Once in a blue moon"

Do you know what a "blue moon" is? It's the second full moon in a month, which doesn't happen very often, thus the expression. We happened to have one this week, and it was still so pretty in the sky yesterday morning that I had to grab my camera and capture it before it got away behind the hay shed. I almost missed it!

In case there's any question, it's the white ball in the center of the photo... not the gold ball on the upper right, which is our yard light. :-)

(Yeah, JHRME, it was pretty early.... about 7:20 a.m.!) ;-)
