Cloud Rainbow...

While sitting on our front porch reading yesterday, I looked up in the sky and saw this. It was just a rainbow band across the sky. It lasted for about 15 minutes then quickly disappeared. Apparently they are quite rare.

I had a similar experience earlier this year - just happened to look up at the right time to see what our weatherman called a fire rainbow (April 18, 2020).
