How About ‘Em Dogs?

Last month,  I posted a picture I had taken of what looked like part of a rainbow in the sky.  Madeline and Terri explained what I was seeing was a “sundog”.  Madeline’s husband, Cy, told her that the sundogs usually appear in pairs. 

This afternoon, Mark, Ben, and I went to Canandaigua for awhile.  As we were driving around, I saw another sundog in the sky. I was so fascinated, but Mark and Ben were so preoccupied, they scarcely seemed to even hear my comments!  I kept taking photos of the beautiful little streaks of color and thought I would just enjoy it myself!

 Mark finally acknowledged that he saw it,  but it was only when a man walked over to show me the “other one” that Mark began to show some interest! Yes, just as Cy had said, the sundog I spotted  had its twin located across from it!

Oh, and yes, even though the temperature was a tad chilly today,  the skies were spectacular!
