Has anyone seen or photographed the 'Winter Albireo' yet. I once found this by accident originally while scanning in Canis (with a Mak!). I always referred to it as the 'Winter Albireo'. Until I discovered that it had already been discovered and was actually called the 'Winter Albireo'. As in a '*Camberwell Carrot' sense; it looks like Albireo and you can see it in winter lol.

 

Ever since, it's been one of my favourite winter objects. I don't think it will be visible to me at a convenient time until late January.
