wind spinner

Yard art whirligig

A wind spinner is a decorative outdoor ornament designed to rotate when caught by the breeze.

Typically made of metal or plastic with curved blades or spiraling shapes, wind spinners are mounted on stakes in gardens or hung from porches.

Unlike wind chimes, they're silent—the appeal is purely visual, creating movement and flashing reflections in sunlight.
