What are the stars/constellations a beginner/enthusiast can easily identify? I was just wondering what are some of the stars, constellations or any other things that one can just identify by looking up at the night sky.

For example, when ever i look up, I immediately see Orion and can identify Betelgeuse, Rigel, Bellatrix. Apart from that i can identify some of the bright stars liike sirius , vega.
So, what other stars are there that one can easily identify and point?
In the Fall (early morning) and the Winter (early-late evening), Orion is a large an easily identifiable constellation.

In the Spring (early morning) and the Summer (early-late evening), Cygnus and Pegasus are two large and easily identifiable constellations.
