Default Weather Vanes - Are they allowed?

We already have our home purchased, but have not yet moved in full time. One of the items we would like to bring with us is a very nice copper eagle weather vane. It has been mounted on our current home for many years and is an art object, as well as a weather vane. It would fit in very well with the locale of the home, being on a protected environmental area. Will we need to get permission to have it mounted on our TV home roof when we move? Also, I wonder if anyone knows if a copper weather vane, properly rigged and grounded, could serve as a lightning rod to divert the infamous Florida lightning away from more delicate potential targets.
