Tonight brings the first full moon of summer: the Hay Moon 🌕🌾 Named by Anglo-Saxons for the hay harvest, it’s also called the ‘Buck Moon’, a Native American name marking the time young deer bucks grow new antlers. Celts knew it as the Wyrt or Mead Moon, for herb gathering. Moonrise: 22:15*

I've been on an adventure! Walked from Beaulieu village along the riverside path to Buckler's Hard (the old shipyard where ships were made for the Navy centuries ago). A lovely day! 🐾😃 @newforestnpa.bsky.social #BucklersHard #Beaulieu #photography #photo #fujifilm #fuiji #xt3
