You will be able to see many pictures of today’s #eclipse, but not so many with a bird transiting in front.
The Earth, a fellow earthling and the Moon in a row.
And yes, a window among the clouds finally opened after leaving behind the cumulonimbus of the previous post!

A cumulonimbus cloud illuminated by the last sun rays of today.
With pileus (a cap cloud) on top.
Seen as I drove through the Monegros Desert (Spain).

A wide view of stars and nebulae of the Milky Way covering the constellations of Aquila, Scutum, Sagitta, Delphinus, among others.
Five-second exposure with my phone, from the very dark skies of La Rioja Biosphere Reserve (Spain).

I just became associate editor at Journal of Seismology:
link.springer.com/journal/1095...
Possibly I will handle your manuscript if it deals with:
- statistical seismology,
- earthquake catalogues,
- probabilistic earthquake forecasting,
- seismic hazard or
- earthquake geology.

Partial solar eclipse at its maximum from Zaragoza, Spain, today at 10:40 UTC.
A sunspot can be seen near the Sun's limb (the border of the disk).

And this is my best shot of tonight’s full Moon alone.
Mars (small, dim, redish dot below) and the full Moon.
Single pic taken from Barcelona, Spain, at 22:00 UT.
It is difficult to capture Mars properly without overexposing the Moon.
Tonight’s occultation of Mars will not be visible from here.
