A Weathercock, Rye, New Hampshire - Weathervane Wednesday

 This weathervane was photographed in Rye, New Hampshire. 



Today's rooster weathervane was photographed along Ocean Boulevard in Rye, New Hampshire.  This house has a large number of white statues in the front, and bronze statues in the back garden, so we often call it "The Statue House" when we pass by.  

The weathercock here is a traditional rooster, usually seen on farmhouses, barns, or churches. It is a very unusual weathervane for a formal house, especially one on the seashore!
