The mallard is a very old duck and the ancestor of most of the world’s domestic duck breeds. The males get all the looks with their iridescent-green heads, white collars and bright yellow bills. But the females, a motley brown, get all the camouflage – a lifesaver when you’re sitting quietly on a dozen eggs. One day after birth Mallard ducklings can run, swim, forage and waddle around in single-file behind their mothers – the sight of which just makes us feel all warm inside. A Metalbird Mallard’s natural habitat? Your backyard, of course.

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.
