Out and About? Not Today.

I didn't spend much time outdoors today as the bush fire situation in New South Wales and south-east Queensland mean that the air is polluted with smoke to dangerous levels. Fire fighters and volunteers are exhausted after days and nights of unrelenting fires; reinforcements are arriving from other Australian states and also from New Zealand. It's a serious situation. Meanwhile, the hot, dust-dry and windy conditions are exacerbating the fire situation.

The government advice for those in smoke affected areas is to stay indoors. So, I took a quick pic of two young Butcherbirds before heading home, closing up all the windows and putting the aircon on.
