The sunspot groups are fabulous.
My wife and I observed the large spot with our eclipses glasses today.
Worth a look.

Re: A new day begins - January 17th
It’s amazing what can be seen when the Sun is active. Spots can easily be seen using just eclipse glasses and low magnification solar binoculars can show even more. A telescope becomes almost optional!
