I am not much of a morning person but managed to get a glimpse.
Saw about 2 - 3 in a minute, but whether it was a trick of the eye I swear I could see many more EXTREMELY faint buggers coming from the central region. Is this possible or was it just a optical illusion to getting up early?

I got the camera out but haven't processed any images but I think I didn't get the focus right. Stars were in focus but the occultation later in the morning was out of focus.
