My app told me about the Venus and Moon conjunction a few days ago. It looked like the clouds were not going to let me photograph it but they parted almost on cue. Here are my two favorite shots. The star off to the left I believe is "Spica".
My birding friend pointed me to a new website that counts the number of birds migrating. It is possible to focus on a particular county. Here is the migration into Williamson county on November 5, 2026: here. Notice the sharp increase in rate around 9 p.m. There was a storm coming and I'm guessing they were heading south in front of the storm. The date as well as the location can be changed with controls towards the top of the page next to "Migration Dashboard". Compare November 5th with November 2nd. You could also find out the activity where you are at.
Because I thought there was more activity, I went out after capturing the images of the Moon and Venus to my local park but still didn't really see much. I thought this guy was cute: Ruby-crowned Kinglet
