"Sun Dog" and Parhelic Circle

A "sun dog" (scientific name parhelion, for "beside the sun") is a common bright circular spot on a solar halo. It is an atmospheric optical phenomenon primarily associated with the reflection or refraction of sunlight by small ice crystals making up cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. Often, two sun dogs can be seen (one on each side of the sun) simultaneously.
The "parhelic circle" is produced when sunlight reflects from near vertical faces of ice crystals. Source: Sun Dog (Wikipedia) Parhelic Circle
