This is the extremely rare Aardvark Moon which strikes me as appropriate for today's #BlueSkyArtShow #Odd I will likely not ever see a moon like this again! #Photography #EastCoastKin
Kent Brockman13Trivia for all: Aardvark is a Dutch word for earth pig. Now back to your regularly scheduled program. You're welcome.
wfothergill.bsky.social10My daughter thinks it looks like the flag of Cypress.
AlinaHagen 🌊🎨📸9Awesome shot, Dave! That is really cool.
CatVanDooh3And his prey, just out of reach. Hey Ant. Ant, I know you're in there. 🚬😎
CJ3At first I was asking what the heck an aardvark moon was .. then I got it. Then I had the serious question .. what is causing it ... I can't see anything that would/is blocking those portions of the moon? I probably should be able to figure it out but I am currently dumbfounded.
magbo66.bsky.social2Not The Great Pumpkin rising ?
Sabocat2This reminds me of all the things beating up on the moon in The Tick comics.
Jim Sylvester2Can't fool me. That's a map of part of Canada and part of Alaska.
SteveDemetriou2Once watched a bright sliver of the Moon rise out of the ocean like a billowing foresail of a sloop mounting the horizon. I may have been a little high at the time, b/ it was stunning nonetheless.
