Ursa Major (the Big Dipper) pales in comparison with this pareidolic bear. There are a myriad of interesting things visible in the sky on a winter's night, but perhaps most notable this evening was the comet 46P/Wirtanen, dubbed the "Christmas Comet". It glows a pale blue-green, and could be seen dimly with the naked eye. These tidepools adorn the rocks at Moonstone beach in Northern California.
