Summer is now in full swing, and those on Vancouver Islander had to stay up a little later last night – until the clouds rolled by – to witness a super rare ‘strawberry moon’.
For the first time in nearly 5 decades, there was a full moon during the summer solstice – named by Native Americans, a signal to tribes that it was strawberry season.
The last time the strawberry moon happened on the first day of summer was back in 1967.
Here are 9 photos of last night’s strawberry moon that lit up Vancouver Island in glowing white light.
