The first full moon of this decade (a Wolf Moon) will be on Friday, Jan. 10th.  The cam ops at the Flyway Cam do an exceptional job capturing these full moons for us--for which I am incredibly grateful.  I saw this interesting article in the online version of House Beautiful magazine about Wolf Moons and wanted to share it with Flyway cam fans:  https://www.housebeautiful.com/about/a30433783/full-wolf-moon-eclipse-january-2020/ 

There is a calculator to figure out what time we can expect to see the moon rise and it looks like it will be about 4:45 p.m. on Friday evening.  The article says that what we can see should be something like this:  "Those interested in catching this special full moon ascend into the night sky can expect the moon to glow orange, then yellow, and continue to keep getting brighter as it drifts upward." Looking forward to watching for sure.

Thank you for the information.  I often leave the site up at night, to see moon and stars.

Great gif of moon rising! Was that in speeded-up motion, or realtime?
Hope for a clear sky tonight.

Wednesday's (JAN 8) chat ended with mention of disgusting something-or-other, and vultures. I was away but hoping for pictures here because I didn't find anything on rewind when I got home on Wednesday. Can someone fill in information for this nosy Flyway watcher?

Real time, but it looked to be moving.  Tonight is supposed to be really cool!

Beaver with Fish? --  January 11, 2020

Beavers are herbivores, so not sure what I saw, maybe a muskrat.
