The Beaver Moon will be at its 'peak' on November 4th.
Beaver Moon is the name given to the last full moon before winter and promises to wow as it travels into the constellation Cetus.
Beaver Moon, a name originating from the Native Americans, is also referred to as 'Hunters Moon', 'Frost Moon' and 'Mourning Moon', depending on the winter solstice.

This year's Beaver Moon has just missed out on being declared a 'Supermoon', despite being the second closest moon to earth in 2017.
It is set to light up skies over Ireland and the UK, appearing much over 14 percent larger and almost a third brighter.
