    Sorry about the abysmal quality of this one, but taken on the mobile into a very bright sky.

    This is a house on the riverside at Pangbourne.

    That is a nice one- and I love the feeling of movement that it gives, after all that is what it is recording.

    again an excellent find Beryl. I can see why the second one is on the church but I wonder what the first one on the Library symbolises?

    I suddenly remembered my trip to London and was there a vane at the Observatory. There would have to be because it is a place where time and every thing is recorded wind as well

    I don't think so. I'll have a look on a windy day. It's in town.

    The library are very keen to find out what their Weather Vane depicts now and never thought about before but have suddenly become very interested.
    It was a school before they took over and they are going to e-mail me . They said it might take a week or two

    Here are a few from today.

    Number one is on the main Reading to Goring road at Lower Basildon, The second is the church at Pangbourne, the third is a house at the rear of the church, fourth is a better version of the one I posted earlier, it is on the main road through Pangbourne and last, this one is on the main road out of Pangbourne, towards Goring on Thames, on one of the large riverside properties.

    Wow you two have now become experts on finding and photographing weather vanes, I look at one and think oh look at that and then I look at another and think the same. It is hard to choose a favourite because I love em all..................10/10 to the vane team

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    Hey well done again you too ( the vane team have been on patrol again), I've gotta get out more. Know what I'll be looking for when I visit Cornwall in a weeks time...................and it's not often I come up with a good idea but I am really enjoy looking at all these wonderful weather vanes.
