I saw Comet NEOWISE this morning at about 4:20 am. I could see it with my unaided eye. In the binos it was a bright, large object showing a fair amount of detail.
Best cometary apparition since Hale-Bopp in ‘98!

I tried to take a comet pic, but my phone camera won’t recognize something so faint.
I saw the comet rise at about 3:50 am. By 4:25 there was the first gray of morning twilight, and the comet washed out fast.
It should be an evening-sky target today or tomorrow. Considering the last quarter moon this am, I got a pretty good view of the cream-yellow dust tail.

Excellent photo. The crepuscular rays add a nice touch.

I'm guessing he sat out there for awhile to get that shot.

I’ll wager it’s a composite. The comet only photographs that well against darkness. The combined effect mimics the way it looks in my binos.

Venus Fly Trap, First Bloom. There are 6 more buds ready behind this flower and more that look like they are still forming.
Bluebirds moved into the house the day after I put it up.
This is a very hardy plant. Squirrels have knocked it off the ledge 3 days in a row. It actually bloomed while it was laying on the ground after having fallen out of the pot.
When the traps turn black they can be "Plucked". The rhizome of the fresh "plucked" trap stem can be cloned.
