Frequently Asked Questions about the MetalBirds

What is the MetalBird made of?

The MetalBird is made of corten steel. Corten steel is a type of metal that develops a thin layer of rust under the influence of the weather. The rust layer gives the bird a beautiful rust-brown color and also protects against further rusting. Corten steel is indestructible and requires no maintenance.

How can I attach the MetalBird?

A hammer and a stool is all you need. At the end of the branch the bird is sitting on is a sharp point. A few taps with the hammer and your bird is secured in the tree or the wood of the fence. For attachment in a wall you can use a plug.

Won't you damage the tree if you hit the metal bird into it?

Because there is a sharp point, you only make a small hole. The tree is not bothered by it. We do recommend waiting for very young trees until spring is over and the sap flows through the tree less quickly.

What can I do to prevent the Metalbird from rusting?

Would you rather not have the MetalBird rust? Then you can treat it with oxan oil. This oil protects the bird from the elements.

The metal birds are available in different types: pigeon, kingfisher, blackbird, robin, woodpecker, owl, wren, magpie, etc. etc.

Did you know that part of the proceeds from every bird silhouette sold goes to bird protection?
