HD 56577 or 145 Canis Majoris is a single[8] K giant or supergiant star in the southern constellation of Canis Major. Its apparent magnitude is 4.84. It has a visual companion. It is often referred to as The Winter Albireo as it is quite similar in appearance to the well-known double Albireo in Cygnus.[citation needed]
