First unambiguous Dust Devil of the new season seen by Spirit

There was a previous sighting but it was a bit ambiguous and not clear in a single unprocessed frame.

Hopefully this will mark the beginning of the windy spring/summer season and hopefully the clearing of some dust from Spirit ( which despite common misconceptions was probably not actually cleaned BY dust devils...given that some of it's great cleaning events happened at night )
