Hi Dale and list,

Reported magnitudes for Starshine flashes got as bright as -2 on several
occasions, but are usually in the range of +3 to -1. The number of flashes seen
on a single pass varies between 0 and 3 on average.

Let's keep an eye on those birds and report their flash rate and magnitudes
until their reentry.
