8x32BA Noctilucent cloud bright display (1 Viewer)

Used 8x32BA extensively to view a major bright display of NLC.

Elevation 5 degrees to 38 degrees.
Azimuth 320 degrees to 035 degrees plus.

There were smaller areas just larger than the 8x32BA field with ten or twelve closely evenly spaced horizontal bands.
Several pairs of birds, possibly crows, flew in front of these areas heading north.
I'll see if any caught on photos.

Much larger bands covering much of larger area of sky, some curving downwards and bright.

Conditions excellent.

Continuing 03.53 BST but becoming faint in brightening dawn.

Some of the display was over Scotland and maybe also Norway.

Regards,
B
