Default Venus the Evening Star Shinning Brightly

Venus (currently magnitude -4.0) will continue to dominate the western
evening sky right through the early to mid summer period before being lost
in the twilight glare by late August.

One to look out for is on the 15th June when Venus and the Moon (which will
be a 3 day old crescent) will form a nice pairing in the early evening sky
with Mars and Saturn further east completing a arc of the ecliptic.
