If it's the brightest star in the night sky, it's probably Venus.  Venus has a perpetual thick cloud cover which is highly reflective and although not the closest planet, it is the brightest object in the night sky (not counting the moon of course) when visible to the northern hemisphere.
I'll confirm that with my brother who is an amateur astronomer.

Fellow Coupers::
 
I wonder what the bright Planet just to the left of the Moon is?

I know we are supposed to have a big Mars display this Summer, but I thought that was in August.
