Satellite trails? Or some other phenomena?

I saw this photo posted on FB today. There are numerous trails or streaks in this photo of the night sky in the area around Hercules (Vega near top center). Can you see what's going on? Could they be Starlink satellite trails?? This one I did figure out, and I won't keep you in suspense for long...
And as long as we're here... How many of the Nautical Almanac's "official 57" navigation stars are in frame. And a little more difficult, which of the official 57 is just out of frame on the left?
