The Bright Herald
First signs of spring after the long winter

Photo taken in Armidale, Australia, by R Makim
Flowers like snow cover
Frostbitten branches as
Late winter sun tries to break into
Spring.
_
A flash of colours warm and bright
A jester's comical camouflage.
A rosella hiding (poorly)
In the plumtree.
_
Herald of the change
Of the season.
