I observed for 2 hours on the morning of the 29th (9:28-11:28 UT) and saw a
total of 58 meteors under magnitude 6.6-6.8 skies. 26 were sporadics (I put
two possible Alpha Triangulids in here), 14 were South Delta Aquarids, and
12 were Perseids. The early Perseids seemed pretty bright and strong.
Totals:
1 CAP (magnitude +1)
4 ANT (mean magnitude 2.5)
14 SDA (mean magnitude 2.4)
1 PAU (magnitude +2)
12 PER (mean magnitude 1.6)
26 Spo (mean magnitude 2.6)

So he slept on a mountain.
In a sleeping bag underneath the stars
he would lie awake and count them.
And the gray fountain spray of the great Milky Way
would never let him die alone.
