The afterglow of Summer

Well the calendar says Autumn but it feels a lot more like Summer. Brisbane had a top of 35degrees yesterday, the highest temperature in the whole state of Queensland; and well above average. Though not much has been average this year. The sky put on a special show of clouds late this afternoon when I walked down to close up the chooks, with balmy warm air after westerly winds today. I took a moment to just watch the whipped clouds illuminate in the setting sunlight.
