There is just something fascinating about a weathervane or vent cock and a must have, a décor and ornament that signifies stature, power, and beauty. Plus, it tells you where the wind comes from on the highest point.
A wind vane, weather vane, or weathercock is an instrument used for showing the direction of the wind. It is typically used as an architectural ornament to the highest point of a building. The word vane comes from the Old English word fana, meaning "flag".
Why do people use weathervanes?
A weather vane is an instrument used to show the direction the wind is blowing from. It is one of the simplest weather instruments created and it has been used since ancient times. The weather vane is made up of a tail and an arrow.
Farmers use weathervanes to gather information about prevailing winds in order to know how to plant their crops and ensure proper pollination of their large fields. They were also able to predict changes in weather by understanding the weather patterns of their area.
It is further used as a compass and for sailing and other boats. For me it is also a piece of unimaginable beauty. I love these rooster weathervanes one prettier than the next. I put the suggestions in price order so you know where to look the highest is the first.
