9x60 binoculars
Localized VLM 5.0
C2006/M4 (SWAN): Tail visible with averted vision. Approx. 2.5 degrees
in length. Facing west, the tail is pointing east-northeast. Coma large
and bright, core not obvious.
I serendipitously caught a break in the clouds when I went out to call
in the cat. Moral is, always keep binoculars by the door. ;-)
