Sometimes called a ‘Chickenhawk’, the Red-tailed Hawk will eat almost everything except a full-sized chicken! Squirrels, mice, rabbits, birds, reptiles, snakes, lizards, fish and insects are all on the menu for this absolute madman. With a distinctive red tail, this hawk is an open-country bird, often seen perched on a pole or soaring in wide, relaxed circles above fields.. until it glimpses a meal. The red-tailed hawk has a loud, high-pitched screaming whistle, used in TV and Films regardless of what bird of prey is actually on screen! (your secret is out, bald eagle, we know you don’t do your own voicework)
Our Red-Tailed Hawk is:
Our birds are designed with 1/8-inch CorTen steel to form a protective patina that deepens and strengthens with the seasons. This patina will deepen in shade over the years until it reaches a deep brown/charcoal black hue.
This self-sealing aspect of CorTen steel provides a quality guarantee of up to 100 years, ensuring that our product lasts a lifetime and remains completely corrosion resistent.
What might initially resemble generic rust is simply the air and water-tight patina forming over a six month period, so don’t panic! Your Metalbird is doing exactly what it’s been designed to do, and this patina will protect the steel from any further damage and disintegration.
CorTen steel does not require any treatments, oils or chemical additives and is therefore extremely environmentally friendly.

Over the years we’ve tried everything in our quest to find the perfect Metalbird material and believe Corten Steel is it. Corten Steel or ‘Weathering Steel’ is used in high-end exterior architecture, for good reason. Exposed to the elements, within weeks it develops a patina that seals the steel and preserves it for decades. It also leaves a beautiful even coloring that will get darker over the years.
