Hi,
I think it is also called a whirligig.
A whirligig is a device, moved by the wind, which whirls and turns on a pivot. Many are simple in design but you do get very elaborate ones.
Hope this helps. There is a lovely book called the whirligig which is great for teens.
Hope this helps. Have a great day.
