Mackinac Sun Dog


My husband and I were walking home earlier this week and were treated to a sun dog. (Can you see it? It's the little rainbow above the tree line.) I just love how my husband always seems to notice these. It's been a long time while since we've seen one - the last time being in February of 2008. The most spectacular one we've ever seen occurred just a few days earlier out over the ice. I was surprised to see one since it has been so warm here - I think our high yesterday was 55 (about 12 C.)

How about you - have you seen anything interesting lately?

  1. I used to see those rather frequently when I lived in Grand Rapids and drove east out to my office on highway 21 on winter mornings. One of them was just phenomenal.

  3. I've only seen one, and didn't know it was called a sun dog! It was quite bright and I came home and looked it up on the internet without knowing what I was looking for, lol. Very cool!
