Saw Comet McNaught this morning with 20x80 binoculars. Its coma was similar in size and brightness to NGC 371 in the SMC. The tail was about 2 degrees long, the first 1 degree of tail was easy to see and the rest was difficult. The broad tail makes an angle of about 30 degrees with the comet, the top part is faint the lower part easy to see.
