It was bright for much of its track, +2 to +1, and slowly flared to +0.5 at 02:05:45 UTC (29 April) on the Bootes-Corona Borealis border. An image of this flare is below.
Five minutes earlier I observed a nice flare of Iridium 61 (predicted -8 but I think it was a bit fainter), see also below (2nd image).
