Fogbow, White Rainbow or Ghost Rainbow - Mini Documentary

Lucky encounter with a "Fogbow" while searching for birds out on the vast Florida grasslands – sometimes called white rainbows, cloudbows or ghost rainbows. Soundtrack by meadowlarks! Fogbows are made much as rainbows are, from the same configuration of sunlight and moisture. Rainbows happen when the air is filled with raindrops, and you always see a rainbow in the direction opposite the sun. Fogbows are much the same, always opposite the sun, but fogbows are caused by the small droplets inside a fog or cloud rather than larger raindrops. Because the water droplets in fog are so small, fogbows have only weak colors or are colorless. Look for fogbows in a thin fog when the sun is bright. You might see one when the sun breaks through a fog.
