Pipit & Chick
Helped by their made-for-purpose long hind toe, these small streaky brown songbirds like to walk around forgaging on shores or plowed fields, wagging their tails as they go. Small and humble they may be, but tough too. 17 American Pipit nests were buried in a snowstorm for 24 hours in the Beartooth Mountains of Wyoming. All of the chicks 11 days or older survived, plus a few of the younger ones. We created this cute mother and chick pair in their honor. They deserve a special spot in your garden
Our Pipit & Chick is:
- 6 inches high by 12 inches wide (including the branch/spike)
- Easily installed with the tap of a hammer (pre-drill hard wood)
- Designed in 1/7-inch Corten® steel to form a beautiful patina of rust that changes with the seasons
- Shipped to you quickly
- The perfect gift for the mom you love

AS SEEN IN
Each Metalbird is crafted from Corten® Steel, a premium, weathering steel made to last.
When it meets the elements, it doesn’t rust like your old BBQ. It transforms.
That change you’re seeing? That’s patina. A tough, protective outer layer that seals the steel, adds character, and preserves your bird for decades.
This isn’t paint. It’s nature’s way of ageing gracefully.
The Patina Process:
At first, you’ll notice bright orange spots (we call this the teenage phase). Soon enough, the whole bird will turn a bold orange, slowly shifting into deep burnt umber. Eventually, it settles into a moody charcoal that feels like it’s always belonged.
The Result? A piece of industrial art with a heartbeat. No peeling, no fading, just a bird that gets better with age.
