Very difficult to find. Took me a long time to locate this star and required a lookup to AAVSO and Stellarium. Even then, it took three or four tries. Orange.

Beautiful area of the sky that I recall seeing when observing NGC 1931. It was a little bit of a challenge to determine which star this was, since there were quite a few high-profile stars in the FoV, but I finally got it. A bit fainter and the color seems to have traces from yellow to red.
