Icebow or Sundog ?? I have looked through many explanations for this phenomenon and I think that it is an icebow or sundog ... is a rainbow-like spot in a cirrus cloud, light shines through ice crystals in the cloud making a icebow or sundog, much like light shining through raindrops makes a rainbow. In a real rainbow light is diffracted through a circular drop of rain, producing many different colours, In the icebow diffraction is through a specific face of the hexagonal ice crystal, which only gives rise to one colour ... I was so excited to see this it was a very very cold morning and the sun had just risen in Longridge, in Lancashire and it's certainly a one off for me, and something that I've never seen before.

Ladybirds Coccinellidae ... is a family of beetles known as Ladybirds - they will hibernate in large groups in sites which are used year after year. The name ladybird comes from the Middle Ages when the colourful insects were known as the "beetle of Our Lady", they were named after the Virgin Mary because in early religious paintings she was often shown wearing a red cloak, the seven-spots symbolise seven joys and seven sorrows.
