Cirrus clouds are small and whispy. They look like light brush strokes with too little paint. They were called "mare's tails" by the old-time mariners.

Cirrus clouds (also called Mares tails) are thin wispy clouds. They can produce halos around the sun, and even make sun dogs! Jet engines make contrails, which is a type of cirrus cloud.
