I took this photograph with my mobile phone for La Vanguardia Readers' Photos at six in the afternoon in Corbera de Llobregat, in the Baix Llobregat region, where it seems as if the moon were hanging from a branch of this tree, like if it were just another leaf.
It is the case that the moon we see is already almost full, since the first full moon of the year will occur tomorrow, January 25, starting at 2:54 p.m. and it is estimated that it will be around 6:54 p.m. when the moment of greatest visibility occurs. , according to the National Astronomical Observatory.
The full moon of the first month of the year is known as the wolf moon since the Native American people associated this time with an increase in the howling of these animals around their villages.
It is believed that wolves took advantage of the moonlight to come out of their burrows and hunt, which is why this nickname ended up being given to the full moon in January.
The next full moon of the year 2024 will not be seen until February 24. For now, we can see in Corbera as if the moon were the fruit of the tree.
