That is Venus, playing its traditional role as "Evening Star". Venus passed its maximum "extension" - its angular distance from the Sun - last month, and is starting to swing around behind the Sun. By mind-March, it will be difficult to see in the evening sky.

After a couple of months, Venus will swing out from behind the Sun, and become the "Morning Star" as it rises before the Sun does each morning. It repeats this morning star-evening star cycle every 10 months or so.
