Details:
Observing the sun with my Astro-Physics 152mm F8 telescope fitted with a Daystar Quantum PE .5 angstrom H-alpha filter I watched the area around AR2718 erupt into a small solar flare at 14:20 UT. Then just 22 minutes later another small flare began just West of the large filament in the NE quadrant of the Sun. It's nice to see these late cycle flares as we head into solar minimum next year.
