Nuthatch
Yes, that funny upside-down bird.
The Nuthatch is the acrobat of the bird world — a tiny, tree-hugging gymnast that earns its name by jamming nuts into bark and smashing them open with its beak. Their wild toe arrangement (one back, three forward) lets them do something most birds can’t: climb down trees headfirst. Which might explain why toddlers find them hilarious.
We’ve captured the Nuthatch mid-perch — upright, proud, and full of personality. But if you’ve got kids (or just love chaos), go ahead and install it upside-down. We won’t stop you.

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.
