This fire rainbow, or more properly, a circumhorizontal arc, appeared and several coastal residents got a photo of it. Donna Woodbury photographed it from Anchor Bay Beach. In Donna's second photo the fire rainbow is at the bottom and a portion of the halo around the sun appears. A halo can often predict rain.

Peggy Berryhill only had her phone camera but she captured it too. She said the colors were much more vibrant that what her photo shows.

And lastly Christina Chapman got this photo, which also shows the halo around the sun.

A circumhorizontal arc occurs when the sun is refracted through ice crystals.

Thanks to Donna, Connie, Peggy, and Christina for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

Donna Woodbury and her friend, Heidi Endemann, recently took a walk on Anchor Bay Beach with their dogs. Jerry Anon captured this lovely photo.

Any day is a great day to take a walk at sunset!

Thanks to Jerry for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

Anchor Bay Beach is a wonderful place to see wildlife, watch the sunset and admire the waves. Donna Woodbury enjoyed a visit recently and was rewarded with the sighting of a Bald Eagle. She showed the big bird to Jerry Anon and he took this photo.

Jerry also caught a beautiful photo at Anchor Bay Beach of what he calls a glass wave. Just beautiful!

Thanks to Donna for sharing her sighting and to Jerry for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
