Hello Robert,
Here's my data from 11/12-10-2004. Due to incoming clouds and leaving to
work I wasn't able to observe 'till dawn (~4:30 UT). I think that I had much
more Aurigids, because when I stopped  the radiant still was rising.
I captured four meteors (ok, one is really weak!) on my Canon 10D with a
Zenitar 2.8/15 mm fish eye lens, amongst them two were delta Aurigids. You
can see them on my homepage:

Clear sky's
