While your plugging observational goodies, can I point out that Mercury is currently very easy to spot in the early morning sky? It is the bright "star" below Venus, about 1/3 of the Venus-Jupiter distance, in the Eastern sky. Here in Oz it is about 1/2 way between Venus and the horizon when the sky first starts to get light, but latitude and local conditions might change that.
