Laura and I were returning from our walk to Chebucto Head when we spotted a Sundog in the western sky at about 6:45PM.  All three spokes were visible including the centre spike and the two outer dogs.  The outer dogs were the nicest rainbow patterned ones I've ever seen.  Here's the Wikipedia story on this solar/atmospheric phenomenon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_dog
