AN OLD FAVORITE - A DOG ON POINT WITH A SPARROW?

 

A favorite from my archives. The weathervane caught my attention when we were on one of our weekend drives. We had stopped to look at an old building and this was on the roof. The sparrow refused to pose long enough for a photo. He was already heading south! You will see him if you look along the downward line of the roof.

"If twice rotates the weathervane, 

it’s indicating wind and rain."

~Author Unknown~

and

“You who travel with the wind, 

what weathervane shall direct your course?”

~Khalil Gibran~

Thanks so much for visiting, I hope your weekend is a great one, and that your weathervane is caught by a faint breeze to cool your day.

THE TIME HAS COME...

 

"The time has come," the Walrus said,

"to talk of many things, of shoes and ships

and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings,

and why the sea is boiling hot,

And whether pigs have wings."

~Lewis Carroll~
