Laysan Duck
The gentle, inquisitive laysan duck is one of the rarest waterfowl in the world, native to Hawaii and with just a tiny population remaining. It’s the small things about this shy, critically endangered duck that capture your heart, the white comma around both eyes, the dappled brown plumage featuring one neat flash of brilliant teal beneath the wing. Nearly wiped out by extinction once before, this plucky bird deserves to flourish, and we know you agree!
The laysan duck makes an excellent gift for beloved introverts, picky eaters, and any individuals with a big and beautiful heart.
30% of proceeds from this metalbird go directly to Preventing Extinctions, a BirdLife International programme that carries out urgent, lifesaving conservation work with birds facing extinction, and more than living up to their name in the process!

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.
