The owl with the exclamation marks.

The Great Horned Owl is one of the most powerful owls in North America. Its feather tufts—mistaken for horns—give it a commanding look, while its huge yellow eyes and 270-degree head turns make it an awe-inspiring predator. Known for its silent flight and booming hoot, it rules the night skies across Canada.

Our silhouette captures this bird’s authority in steel. Place it in your garden to add mystery and grandeur, or gift it as a symbol of strength and wisdom.

How to install your Great Horned Owl

  1. Pick a perch – owls look best high up on posts or tree trunks.
  2. Angle slightly down – give it the stance of a watchful hunter.
  3. Align the stake – thickest end against the wood.
  4. Hammer securely – tap until the owl is firm.
  5. Check placement – ensure it faces open space for best effect.

Top Tip: Place where moonlight or outdoor lighting will catch its form for maximum impact.

Why is it called the Great Horned Owl if it has no horns?
The “horns” are actually feather tufts called plumicorns, which add to its intimidating look and help with camouflage.

How big is the silhouette?
11.4 inches (29 cm) high by 5 inches (13 cm) wide, weighing approx. 8oz (227 g).

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.
