My spring galaxy quest with binoculars finally resumed, last night, with a clear sky that decided to stop by for a short visit. Sky transparency was poor, but I was so relieved to get a chance to some astronomy, that I couldn't really complain. Did I add any galaxies to my list? No, though I made a valiant effort with M51. Thought, once or twice that this beauty of a binocular galaxy popped into view, using averted vision, but not enough there to be certain. The beauty of binocular astronomy, though, is that when another opportunity arrives, even on the shortest of notice, I can grab a binocular and start observing. My astronomy binocular and I will be ready.
