huh. Just googled it. Took this picture on my run and blogged it later.
I thought a sun dog was a ring/rainbow around the sun but THIS is a sun dog. Has to do with ice crystals in the atmosphere-- I've been seeing the rings a lot. We're still pretty cold but very sunny. link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_dog
