Well, sometimes google is your friend.

I came across another photo of it on the net.

Taken by a realtor, she claims it is a wind vane (moves around). Could 
be. I don't remember it moving, but it may not have been a windy day. I 
also don't remember a restaurant, if there was one, it was not right 
next to it.

Marnie aka Doe   One of life's mysteries. One of her commentors also 
thought it was something for a horse to jump through.

See Dan's post. The one package he didn't open, out of all the packages, 
had wings on it (also gave him the idea for the sail). And at the end of 
the movie he delivers that package and there are wings at the ranch. And 
there is a hint that she will be someone he sees again.

Yes, that is what it made me think of. I sort of wondered if they got it 
from that. But probably original.

Now that I think about it more, it probably is for jumping through. 
Smallish horse or pony. Then you have to get the picture on the fly. I 
know diddly about horses, but the stepping idea probably wouldn't work.

Maybe a pony? Although I would think the wings would be too big for it.

I imagine they want a horse to step through. Not jump. Front legs in 
front of circle, back legs in back of the circle. Stand still, so it 
looks like it has wings. I don't know if a horse can do that, but 
presumably the people doing it know what they are doing (or not -- maybe 
it doesn't work). I think it would definitely be for photographs.


It's big enough around for a horse. You get idea of its size by the 
fence behind it, even though it is further back. It was large.
