Spot bright Vega early evening. Its little constellation Lyra extends to its left.A fist and a half at arm’s length from Vega, is 3rd-magnitude Albireo, the beak of Cygnus. This is one of the finest colorful double stars for small telescopes: yellow and pale blue. Farther along in roughly the same direction you come to 3rd-magnitude Tarazed and, just past it, 1st-magnitude Altair.
