This is a great idea for a thread Babs, have moved it into the photos section, as I'm sure that members can add to it as we go along.
That's great idea thanks rolf. I shall look for more when I am out and about.
The eye of a photographer knows no bounds Babs......nice and very well done.
Pete.
Taken at St Ives in Cornwall
Spotted this one whilst walking to the most southerly point at the Lizard in Cornwall, it was quite far away but you can still make out what it is
This one doesn't have N S E or W on it but I think it's still a weather vane, I could be wrong though, this one is on top of the lighthouse at the Lizard in Cornwall
This one is was taken at Falmouth, Cornwall not quite sure what it's meant to be though, maybe someone knows and can enlighten me
Some nice ones there Babs, sorry, meant to keep an eye out when I was in France, but forgot.
doh, what you like...........let you off, I really enjoyed looking for them
OK, my first weather vane, saw this one today in Hungerford, really stood out.
Just Googled it and it is the historic Hungerford Volunteer Fire Brigade building.
Very nice
Wey hey, well spotted rolf, top marks.gif "Big Grin")
Found another
and very appropriate for Martin Mere
A good subject for photography.....you won't be able to 'let go of them' now Babs, I reckon they are contagious.
Pete.
Your dead right there Pete, I love looking for them when we are out and aboutOriginally Posted by Merlin
Spotted another today, but didn't have my camera with me, will try and get it later in the week.
Ha ha so your getting the bug tooSpotted another today, but didn't have my camera with me, will try and get it later in the week.
Hungerford Town Hall
Thought this was rather nice.
The Warren Caversham
This is on a house on the Thames at Caversham, a big area for Swallows and Swifts, as they nest in the rafters of the boathouses..
That is a nice one.
I guess one can have them made as the wish really .

right, I'm losing it
your getting good at spoting these weather vanes rolf, both are really nice
hope the owners of the second one know a good roofer
Weather vane
Local church. The only weather vane I have seen in Exmouth so far
Had to include this photo. I found it searching foe a photo. I took this in 2006 because it was lined with Starlings. It is the same church so have put it in here

Nice one Beryl, I'm sure you'll find some more though.
Thanks Rolf. I'll keep looking
Hey well done Beryl, and what a lovely one too
Thanks Babs
I might be able to take a shot of my own one soon, Greg wants to make a bat one
I wonder why?
I have a passion for sundials. I gave Matty a beauty a I don't have a garden any more . I do still have a weeny one (ornament0
hmmmmm
Yes I have a sun dial too, but there is something about weather vanes
Amazingly this lovely Vane has lived at the back of my house for many years. I spotted it today when visiting my friend it's owner.
How observant I am

not very because there is nothing there
Errrrr is your friend the local vicar cause I can only see the one on the church
There is now there were some spots I had to clear up.
It's called Jemima and her puddle ducks
Hey Beryl that's a lovely one, see your getting the bug too. there are some lovely ones coming out of our finds aren't they just look at those little ducklings
Yes. Great one There aren't many in Exmouth my friend even said so
Spotted this one at a job in Newbury, it is the vane on the Nag's Head in the Town centre.
Apologies about the quality, it was taken with the mobile.
It's great and the quality is very good for a mobile . Well spotted Rolf.
Here is the weather vane at Bicton Botanical Gardens at East Devon's picturesque Otter Valley
That's an unusual one Beryl, nice shot.
I'm keeping my eyes open now for more, spotted a couple on my rounds and noting them down for when i have the camera in the van.
