#2366 "Singleton Crescent Moon Summer Sunset"

More than a couple of months of COVID-19 Pandemic Isolation has had a huge impact at Singleton. There were no jet contrails in the sky. That was all natural cirrus in this sunset sky. There was not a contrail in sight. I had to look for the crescent moon. It was very high in the sky. I enjoy these quiet evenings of reflection.

Nature seemed to be breathing a sigh of relief during this period of human isolation. The loon platform had been undisturbed and all looked good. The loons started nesting on Mother's Day and the chicks are expected on June 7th. (Two chicks hatched out right on schedule and the loon family is doing very well.)

Those long strands of cirrus looked like a stretching deformation process to me but it was instrumental to have a satellite view to confirm the meteorological process taking place.
