This constellation is low in the southern sky and in the trees for north and central states, in the steamy hazy summer. If it was visible high in the sky in the winter, it would be more famous than Orion. With a decent size wide field telescope and dark, moonless and crisp skies, you can point just about anywhere in it and see nebulosity.

That whole area of the sky is really fun under dark skies.
