New Region 2880 is putting on a good show with one large & 2 medium spots. The large spot is surrounded by umbra, which also surround a small nearby spot. The three spots is in an attractive V shape, with the large spot being the bottom of the V.
Old Region 2877 is now close to the Solar Limb and has lost its luster.

The reports I'm reading here sound promising!

Thanks; like U, the solar minimum nearly killed my interest in solar observing. However, that's has past and now is a good time to start looking again.
