This was my first daytime observation of a meteor and I was thrilled to get to see it...had I not been already looking up at my house gutters, I would not have seen it... it was so fast and short from my vantage point! Also I would note that it was extremely bright...blue and white

I saw the main object with one major piece of fragmentation (half size of main object) and a handful of other (much smaller) pieces that burned out extremely fast. The roof of my house blocked my view to the south as it came from a southern tract moving northwest
