Cardinal
Ahh, the Cardinal. One of America’s favorite backyard birds, marking spring with a blaze of color, a "what-cheer, cheer, cheer" and a "purty purty purty". Super-breeder Cardinal raises 2-3 broods each season.
The Northern Cardinal is so loved it has been named the official bird of no fewer than seven eastern states and mascot to sports teams throughout the land. Go the Cardinal for your backyard! Also a great gift for the sport-lover in your life

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.
