Day 239: Down came the rain...

Day 239: ...and flushed the ibis out

Actually, less excitingly, it was a day at work for one of those meetings you'd rather not have. Head-to-head with management and we don't always see eye-to-eye. Technically, it should be my last week at work for a little while: two months of long-service leave ahead, and it is full-steam ahead, writing and publishing. Outputs, outputs, outputs...

Feeling like a machine.

There was the promise of rain today. While I'm not a fan of all the driving in the rain for 200km round trip, I am also conscious that some places nearby really need it. There was a touch of thunder too and after a day of rather fine weather, the afternoon turned dark and stormy and then...started to clear in time for the drive home.

Clearing ahead...
The resident flock had the right idea. Let's go. 

Fly, away, over yonder...
...as I departed the campus for what should be some time...

But, dear reader, we've been here before.
