Yeah, you read it right! there is a phenomenon called "sun dog"
{CJATTACHMENT ["id": 9152]}
Sundogs may appear as a colored patch of light to the left or right of the sun, 22° distant and at the same distance above the horizon as the sun, and in ice halos. They can be seen anywhere in the world during any season, but they are not always obvious or bright. Sundogs are best seen and are most conspicuous when the sun is low.

Any environmental or geographical reason for this phenomenon? I never came across with such an experience, though i reside in a shore based place
