Telescope and Bino owners, have a look at Jupiter (after sunset in 
East)  and Saturn (after midnight to dawn in South) this month. Saturn 
near the moon mornings of April 14-17.
You definitely would see some Lyrids if you were to be outside in fairly 
dark area on the morning hours of April 22nd. Info on that is in this 
month's What's Up video here!
