spotted rings and arcs (Bradford)

During our walk about the 'hood, between 5:30 and 6:20, Rhonda and I saw a number of parhelia phenomena. We saw the entire 22 degree halo along with very faint sundogs. I pointed near the zenith where there was a fairly bright prismatic circumzenithal arc. Later, the upper tangent arc brightened. I wasn't sure if we were seeing the 46 degree halo or an infralateral arc on the left. It was quite faint. Oh, and Redwing Blackbirds.
