2017-06-01 15258, 2017
-
Hamuko
It's uncommon, but then again, I don't go looking for them.

I think there is a local tourism company that sells aurora tours where you go out for hunting for them like for 10 days or you get your money back.
2017-06-01 15229, 2017
-
CatQuest
I guess, since you live there, it's not so interesting. like MajorLurker and spiders ;)

similar.... viewable in Tasmania.... was some last week
2017-06-01 15245, 2017
-
Hamuko
In the city center there's some light pollution so it's harder to catch some.
2017-06-01 15213, 2017
-
Hamuko
If I more regularly went out to look for them during the winter season, I imagine I'd catch quite a few of them.
2017-06-01 15220, 2017
-
CatQuest
yea. there is here too, my neighbours has this dumb light on her new roof terrace. so it'll be harder to see the stars thn it already is
