The excitations and radial velocities of the individual HH knots are described. The morphology of the optical and the 2 micron images (the latter dominated by H2 emission and/or the continuum of any embedded exciting stars) is compared; and the new astrometry is discussed. Finally, the likely sources of excitation of these HH nebulae are commented on.
