Sundogs

I always enjoy  looking at  nature, be it through the window of my house or the window of my car; I look up, down, high,low, in ,out, everywhere, hoping to see the surprises  nature has to offer. Everyday, in so many ways I'm baffled  by nature. It just leaves me bewildered.
Sometimes, I've seen the sun, couple hours before sunset, with a huge halo and two  brightly glowing  spots on the left and right of the halo.  I simply didn't know what to make of it, it looked like a huge sun with two mini suns on either side of the halo. It really left me in awe.
After a long search I now know it called a Sundog - scientifically known as Parhelion.
Any time you enjoy the sunset look for a Sundog.
