Mercury   Should be visible low in the south eastern morning sky in the constellation of Sagittarius.  The nearby crescent Moon will help you to locate it on the mornings of 11th—12th Feb.

Jupiter   is visible in the west south-west sky in the constellation of Aquarius. It s approaching conjunction with the Sun so this month sees the end of the current observing window. However from 14—16th Feb Jupiter and Venus (both very bright) plus the Moon are close together low in the sky just after sunset.
