Full Strawberry Moon

The Algonquin tribes knew this Moon as a time to gather ripening strawberries. It is also known as the Rose Moon and the Hot Moon.

June Weather Lore

* When pigs carry sticks, the clouds will play tricks.
* If the birds be silent, expect thunder.
* When spiders’ webs in air do fly, The spell will soon be very dry.
* When sheep collect and huddle, tomorrow will become a puddle.
* When the glowworm lights her lamp, the air is always very damp.
* Bats flying late in the evening indicate fair weather.

June

A bird in the boughs sang “June,”
And “June” hummed a bee
In a bacchic glee
As he tumbled over and over
Drunk with the honey-dew.

–Clinton Scollard (1860–1932)

  Beside the house is a palm tree; home to the noisiest night-time birds on this earth. So loud, in fact, that their twitterings and chatterings wake me at 1am. If I open the door, it's like they tell one another to hush because the human is coming!
