Could see stars down to Lambda (mag. 4.40) in Serpens Caput with the naked eye. 7 main stars of Cygnus visible, but I could not see Vulpecula or Sagitta. Found by aiming binoculars at Altair, then moving toward Vega, passing Sagitta, and stopping at the prominent coathanger shape. Not a true cluster, but a chance alignment of stars. The bright stars are 1 (top, mag. 4.75) and 9 (bottom, mag. 5.0) Vulpeculae.
