Thanks Stephen. The attached SkyMapPro map is for people down under.
The dwarf planet Ceres is 1.5 degrees below Zosma (delta Leo) this morning.

With a diameter of about 950 km, Ceres is by far the largest and most massive body in the asteroid belt, and contains a third (32%) of the belt's total mass.
