Chickadee - Metalbird USA
MEET THE BIRD

Your everyday visitor, in steel.

A round cheek, patterned wing and berries below the branch capture the Chickadee in a small, detailed silhouette. Place it on sound timber near the spot where you stop to watch the yard. Or give it to someone who knows a chickadee before it reaches the feeder.

The Chickadee is a premium metal silhouette depicting a bird perched on a branch with three berries, perfect as elegant yard art and displayed on a neutral background.
MATERIAL & CARE

Steel that changes with the seasons

Corten is weathering steel. Its gray surface changes through orange and brown tones outdoors as a natural rust patina develops. Each setting leaves its own mark, so color and timing vary. Allow water to drain and keep rusty runoff away from pale stone, walls and other surfaces that could stain.

The Chickadee corten steel cutout, featuring a bird perched on a branch, sits beside a silver hammer on a light, neutral background.
INSTALLATION

Choose a perch. Tap it in.

Choose sound, solid wood with space around the silhouette. Hold the branch securely, angle the mounting spike slightly downward and tap the thick end with a hammer or mallet until steady. Hard wood may need a pilot hole. Wear gloves and eye protection, and keep the pointed spike away from children. A fence post or timber planter is a useful alternative to a living tree.

A brown cardboard box labeled METALBIRD with a bird silhouette graphic, set against a light background and palm leaf shadows, hints at the premium corten steel Chickadee art inside.

Frequently asked questions

What is it made from?

American Corten weathering steel, cut and made in the USA.

Will it be painted in bird colors?

No. The design is an unpainted steel silhouette. Its gray surface develops a natural orange-brown rust patina outdoors; it does not have the living bird’s colors.

How big is it?

3.3 in high × 6.2 in wide, excluding the branch; approximately 8 oz.

Where and how do I mount it?

Choose sound, solid wood with space around the silhouette. Hold the branch securely, angle the mounting spike slightly downward and tap the thick end with a hammer or mallet until steady. Hard wood may need a pilot hole. Wear gloves and eye protection, and keep the pointed spike away from children. A fence post or timber planter is a useful alternative to a living tree.

Will it rust or stain?

Yes. Natural rust patina is part of Corten steel. Runoff can stain nearby surfaces, especially while weathering. Choose a location away from pale stone, walls and other surfaces that could stain.

What comes with it?

One connected steel silhouette with integrated mounting spike, Metalbird gift packaging, brand booklet and postcard. Hammer or mallet not included.

Can I return it?
