West Coast Weather Vanes has made a number of Bobwhite weathervanes over the years. The first Bobwhite Weathervane we made was for an East Coast couple who were transferred to Silicon Valley for work, and while they appreciated our California Quail, they missed the familiar Bobwhite from back home. Other examples of our Bobwhite weathervanes can be found in Illinois, Tennessee and a hunting lodge in Georgia.
In our Bobwhite Family weathervane, our customers took advantage of the tradition involving “lucky” pennies and we put individual pennies in each bird, representing the birth years of each family member. In addition, we put the names of each person beneath “their” Bobwhite. Because we make each weathervane to order, we can vary the number of chicks we include depending on our customer’s preferences. If you would like to personalize your Bobwhite vane, just give us a call at (831) 425-5505 and we’d be happy to discuss your custom weathervane with you.
The Northern Bobwhite weathervane shown here is an all copper bird with optional gold leafed throat, eye stripe and feet. If you have a competitive background such as trees, a hillside or another structure in the background behind the weathervane, the gold leafed accents helps your eye separate the weathervane from its backdrop, especially once the copper has weathered into the brown stage.
The Northern Bobwhite is an important game bird found in the eastern half of the United States and in northern Mexico. It is a medium sized ground quail with a small but distinctive crest on its head. The male has a bold whitish throat and eye stripe. The female is light brown in color. Both sexes have very round bodies and short tails. When flushed, they are very fast fliers. The Northern Bobwhite is divided into a number of subspecies including the Tennessee Red Bobwhite, Tuxedo Bobwhite, Silver Bobwhite, and Blond Bobwhite.
