48 in. Metal Weather Vane for Garden Decor Farmhouse Decorative with Rooster Ornament Wind Vane Weathervanes

Description

For centuries, weathervanes have been used to show wind direction and as a decoration on barns, cupolas, steeples, and rooftops. Vibrantly colored and easy on the eye, this painted rooster metal weather vane brings a charming farmhouse touch to any outdoor space. Inspired by the famous, classic weather vane design, this garden wind vane features a crowing rooster in vibrant colors on top of a fletched arrow. Two black directional arms display the four points of the compass—North, South, East, and West—so you can tell which direction the wind is coming from with a glance. Made of heavy-duty iron, this colorful metal wind vane (also known as weathercock) supports different mounting options. It comes with a convenient garden step-on stake, so you have everything you need to install it in a flowerbed, a planter or into the ground within minutes. Rooftop mounting brackets and hardware are not in cluded. When installing, please ensure your location does not obstruct air flow, the directional arms with letters need to be interlocked securely and aligned withe the geographic directions of North, South, East and West. The black arrow with the rooster ontop is ready to spin when the wind is sufficiently strong, while the directionals remain stationary. Ideal for year-round outdoor use, it makes a suitable pick for gardeners and those who want to know the wind direction. It also makes a thoughtful housewarming gift. Review: Good product - Easy to put together. Looks great in the yard Review: Something to crow about - So far, this appears to be an excellent value and an attractive addition to our courtyard. My only complaint is that it comes with a limited-height stand, with no easy, seamless way to extend it, but I just drilled a hole into the end of a pole, sawed a cross-slot and tightened a clamp around it. I was concerned the swivel action might be limited, but that's not the case, and the proud rooster is always crowing into the wind. (A fun bonus: when it first appeared, a flock of curious towhees perched in a nearby tree to see what this new bird on the block was all about, some even inspecting up close, but they soon lost interest.)
