When Pigs Fly

Weather vanes on country barns are usually in the shape
of farm animals. I wonder if this little piggy is pointing
the way to market!

Nice shot of the weather vane Sunny, we get some nice ones over here as well. That previous post with the photo of Bug Hill is a real delight, makes you feel you want to be walking in that winter landscape.

I think this might be the piggy who had roast beef, Sunny. He's looking awfully content up there. How are you feeling today?

Cat said...

Hmmm...I'm not sure...if he's been up there a long time he must be hungry so I would imagine he is pointing the way to the trough!! Though I get the strong impression that someone has been sneaking up there and feeding him because he doesn't look at all like he's starving!!

Have a great day and week!

I also loved those branches silhouette, a great composition!

another first, i have never seen a pig on a weather vane, I have seen roosters and birds of all kinds and even a horse, but not a pig. must be a pig farm.

Oh, my. You can't sit and I can't stand. What a pair we make! Should you see the doc?

I love your barn pics. We don't have many barns with weather vanes on them in OK. I think the wind blows them off.

Oh, I bet he is. A chubby guy, isn't he? I love how you have this perfectly framed with the trees. I really like on this vane. We don't see many where we are.

Sunny, I hope you're feeling ok after your fall!

That's a splendid image Sunny. Love the contrasts, the outline of the little pig against that sky.

I like this but I have a vision of someone kicking this poor pig like a football. :)

He's the leader of the pack, pointing to the beef market

My son in Maine was given to him a free weather vane in the shape of a vulture. He couldn't sell it and my son is as crazy as I am when things are free. I will have to post it.
