On advice from my nephew Kinnon (thanks for the heads up), I decided to do something I haven’t done in many years: get up in the middle of the night to see a meteor shower. Specifically, the Perseids, which are associated with the comet Swift-Tuttle. Even with the light of a half moon, I got to see a pretty good show – here’s my tally for the evening:
- 6 Perseids
- 5 Racoons
- 1 Opossum
- 1 Tarantula
