I post another in 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 vane was photographed somewhere in New Hampshire.

Here are some photos from a previous year's ice fishing derby in Meredith Bay. You can see that this particular ice shack is known as "The Lodge" and it didn't have a weathervane the last time we were up there for the fishing derby. That's probably why it looks so shiny! You have until April 1st to go up to the lake to see this weathervane, that is the date all bob houses must be removed, or before the lake thaws.

Scott Powell's blog is called the "Lake Wicwas Nature Journal". He recently posted two stories about activities on the ice of Meredith Bay on Lake Winnipesaukee. Scott has a lot of great photos on these blog posts. Please check it out!

I went by the bay today and it is still there - right beside the town docks!
