My first attempt.
What a wonderful clear night it was here in south wales due to some very brisk easterly winds. I am very excited about all the things i saw tonight.
Three main non star sightings were
1. Moon rising
2. Shooting Star (possible lyrid)
3. Unidentified sattalite.
Also some new stars for me.
I went out at about 12.30am
Saw antares in the south for the 1st time ever!
Moon rose about 10 seconds later though so off it went!
Long lasting shooting star near vega always makes me smile.
Strange sattalie going south to north right over head at around 12.35-40.
just using my eyes (with glasses, really helping my astigmatism) i could see many spring constellations.
Some firsts were, the diamond shape of lyra, the tail of scorpius and hercules which i may have got wrong.
