Great observations Shelltree. Loved your Omega Cen vs M13 obs. There are about 6 globs in the southern hemisphere that trump M13. Nice job sighting IC 2944/Running Chicken Nebula..... this object is generally quite faint and a challenge from suburban skies. I've never observed it from truly dark skies, only from suburban Melb..I'd imagine it to be a rewarding target away from city lights. Also try for Ced 122 on the eastern side of the Coal sack.
