MEET THE BIRD

Someone’s keeping an eye on the place.

Those “horns” are feather tufts. The Great Horned Owl’s broad face and upright posture do the rest. You don’t need to hear a hoot to know who’s sitting there.

We’ve kept that watchful character in the cut-steel detail. Try it against open sky or a lighter background so the face reads clearly. A good companion for the person who’s always the last to leave the firepit.

MADE FOR OUTDOORS

Steel that changes with the seasons

Corten is weathering steel. Outdoors, its surface develops a rust-coloured patina. The colour and rate of change vary with exposure, rain and drying. Your bird is meant to change with the seasons.

Leave the steel unpainted to enjoy the changing finish. Choose a spot where rust run-off won’t mark pale paving, walls or other surfaces.

INSTALLATION

Choose a perch. Tap it in.

Choose a sturdy wooden fence post, deck post or timber planter. Position the integrated mounting spike against the wood and tap it in gently with a hammer until the bird sits securely. Avoid striking the bird itself.

Choose a spot you have permission to use. Keep the spike out of children’s reach. A clear background helps the silhouette and cut detail stand out.

Frequently asked questions

Are the “horns” part of the design?

Yes. The silhouette includes the Great Horned Owl’s distinctive feather tufts and cut-out facial detail. The real bird’s tufts are feathers, not horns.

Can it stay outside through winter?

Yes. Corten steel is designed for year-round outdoor use. Its surface changes to a rust-coloured patina as it weathers. Keep rust run-off away from pale paving or other surfaces.

How do I install it?

Tap the integrated spike into suitable solid timber with a hammer. Avoid striking the bird itself. No separate bracket is needed.

Where does it ship from, and can I return it?

Canadian orders ship from Montréal. Returns must be requested within 30 days of delivery while the bird is unused, uninstalled and in original condition. See Delivery and returns for shipping charges and full conditions.
