"La Superba " Y CanesV. SAO 044317 a dramatic red star.

"Hind's Crimson" R Lep. SAO 150058 , variable , but on a high you can see why it's called the vampire star by some.

Tegmine , Zeta Cancri , SAO 097645, wonder if challenging triple .

“Winter Albireos, “ i Cancri RA08.46.7 Dec. +28 46'at 30.7" separation.                         HJ 3945 Canis Major ,SAO 173349 at 26.8"
