@edtnps89:

My daughter sees a kite, not a swan. I agree.


The central asterism (also called the "Northern Cross") can certainly be
seen as a kite, but if you include all of the "wing" stars, then the kite
no longer works. Similar to the "teapot" in Sagittarius.


Depends on the kite g.

Clear skies, and brisk, steady winds, Alan
