The Daily Bucket is a regular feature of the Backyard Science group. It is a place to note of any observations you have made of the world around you. Insects, weather, meteorites, climate, birds and/or flowers. All are worthy additions to the bucket. Please let us know what is going on around you in a comment. Include, as close as is comfortable for you, where you are located. Each note is a record that we can refer to in the future as we try to understand the patterns that are quietly unwinding around us.

Whereas, we need a bucket in order to have a daily bucket, and
Whereas I am a hurry this morning:
I will simply note that comet Pan-STARRS is here. Low on the western horizon at dusk and shortly thereafter. The bearing is roughly WSW now, shifting to due W on about the 13th and WNW on the 25th.
You can find more here and a very nice location chart for the month here.
Your Turn
Though the above is hardly a sighting, the bucket is about reporting sightings. So, how about you folk report a few in the comments, giving your approximate location as usual.
