Weathervane Wednesday ~ On the road to a famous Maine lighthouse

It's Weathervane Wednesday!

I post a series of weather vane photographs every Wednesday.  This started with images of weathervanes from the Londonderry, New Hampshire area, but now I've found interesting weather vanes all across New England and across the globe.  Sometimes my weather vanes are whimsical, or historical, but all are interesting.  Often my readers tip me off to some very unique or unusual weathervanes, too!  If you know a great weather vane near you, let me know if you'd like to have it featured on this blog.

Today's weather vanes were photographed in Maine.

Do you know the location of weathervane post #293?  Scroll down to find the answer.




And right next door another great weathervane!




These two nautically themed weather vanes were photographed on Nubble Road in York Beach, Maine.  Both houses were side by side, not too far from the very famous Nubble Lighthouse.  The first is a very beautiful three dimensional three masted sailing ship.  Even the rigging is included on this weathervane.   The second weather vane is a two dimensional sperm whale.  These two houses are waterfront property facing the Atlantic Ocean, the Isles of Shoals and Long Sands at York Beach.  They are very beautiful properties, especially considering that they are both a short walk to Nubble Light, the most photographed lighthouse in Maine.
