This Leaping Trout Weathervane is one of our exclusive designs.  Our customer supplied us with a design of his own creation and we worked closely with him to translate his vision into a working dynamic weathervane.  Friends of ours (LMNO Arts) who are well known sculptors (garden sculptures) fabricated the custom metal cupola below the weathervane.   

 

Trout is the common name given to a number of species of freshwater fish belonging to the salmon family, Salmonidae.

 

Trout are usually found in cool, clear streams and lakes, although many of the species have anadromous strains as well. They are distributed naturally throughout North America, northern Asia and Europe. Several species of trout were introduced to Australia and New Zealand by amateur fishing enthusiasts in the 19th century, effectively displacing and endangering several upland native fish species. The introduced species included brown trout from England and rainbow trout from California. The rainbow trout were a steelhead strain, generally accepted as coming from Sonoma Creek. The rainbow trout of New Zealand still show the steelhead tendency to run up rivers in winter to spawn.[
