Sometimes it's fun to use my spotting scope for things other than birds. Lorraine pointed out that they clouds over the bright moon tonight made a sort of "moonbow." Noting how bright the moon was, I grabbed the scope.

Even Non Birding Bill registered interest. I couldn't believe how clear the moon looked in my scope or that I was able to digiscope it with my Nikon D40.

NBB thought the edges of the moon looked the coolest. As did I, all the various craters playing with the shadows of the Sun's reflections was incredible.
