In April 2025, many of us are joining the 30-Day Nature Observation Challenge. Each day, the goal is to share an observation—a plant, animal, or sound—experienced while spending time outdoors. Wise individuals have noted that observing nature enhances mindfulness, reduces stress, and deepens our appreciation for life’s interconnectedness—a challenge well worth accepting.

Today, my observation is on the MOON.

As we embark on our 64th consecutive monthly challenge, Jeff NeelonJaclyn Donovan, and I feel ready to inspire others to join us. Step outside and let nature awaken your senses—breathe in the fresh air, feel the warmth of the sun, and listen as the world comes alive. Every moment outdoors is a chance to reset, recharge, and reconnect with the beauty around you.

Nature Observation 30-Day Challenge Guidelines

As with previous challenges, participants are encouraged to adapt the guidelines to fit their own circumstances. Commit to spending time outdoors for the next 30 days, observing a new plant, animal, or sound each day.

  1. Record your observations to track your journey.
  2. Share your findings with a challenge partner if you have one.
  3. Join the conversation by posting on social media with the hashtag #Coach4adayChallenge.

Observation #16-Moon

Experiencing a full moon is something that takes place about every month. For April 2025 it has been named the Pink Moon. The name has nothing to do with the color of the moon. If you want to have a calendar of all the 2025 full moons, go to this link.

On Saturday April 12, 2025, I went to the second floor of my house and captured some average photos of the Pink Moon. One was from a window and the second it is obscured by a tree.

Forbes Magazine did an article with Pink Moon photos from around the world.
