This year's brightest New Moon - the Pink Moon - as viewed from West Seattle's Totem Pole Park at the Rotary Viewpoint. With about 200 cloudy days each year, we're not often lucky enough to view the different new moons. The Pink Moon is named after Phlox, the early blooming flowers, native to, and found throughout North America. Other traditional new moons - Worm Moon (March), Buck Moon (July) and Sturgeon Moon (August) - don't have quite the aesthetically pleasing moniker as April's.
