Weathervane Wednesday ~ A New England Farm

Weathervane Wednesday is an on-going series of photographs I post weekly.  I started out by publishing only weather vanes from the Londonderry area, but now I've been finding interesting weather vanes from all over New England.  Sometimes these weather vanes are whimsical, or historical, but all are very unique.  Often, my readers tip me off to some very special and unusual weather vanes.

Today's weather vane is from somewhere in New Hampshire.

Do you know the location of weather vane #263?  Scroll down to see the answer...






This very large eagle weathervane was spotted at a farmhouse in Dunbarton, New Hampshire.  The eagle is a traditional form, landing on a ball with spread wings. It has a nice green patina as if it has been at this location for a long time.  The weathervane is located atop a cupola on an addition off the farmhouse, with a garage and covered walkway.

There is another weathervane on the barn next to the house. I'll have to drive by again some other day and get a photograph of that weathervane, too!

  1. Thanks for your comment on Facebook. It was great to break through a brick wall because of the find in familysearch.org. I hope to try and follow your example and become a better blogger. Just started a new blog, and finally after over a year posted again, "The Happy Dance," in my old blog thestephensherwoodletters.blogspot.com
