March: Worm Moon
This name is from the earthworms that
come out at this time of year.
Some northern tribes called it the
Full Crow Moon, when the cawing of
crows signaled the end of winter.
Another name is Full Crust Moon, as
the snow becomes
crusted from thawing by day and
freezing at night.
March is also called the Full Sap Moon,
since it is time to tap maple trees.
