Add a little bit of ‘Kooky-ness’ to your garden with Australia’s most iconic bird, the

Kookaburra. The iconic Laughing Kookaburra is the largest Kingfisher in the world. According to some Aboriginal Dreamtime stories, the characteristic call is a wake-up call to the sky people to ‘light the great fire’ and start the day. A proud Australian icon, proudly Australian made.

Material: 3mm Corten Steel – designed to rust and age beautifully over time.

Metalbirds are made from Corten® which is designed to rust. This gives them long term protection against the elements, and a beautiful patina that shifts with the season. This means paint won’t stay on for long. If you want to add colour to them, then we recommend having them professionally powder coated. It's easily hammered into most wooden structures and will rust to a deep brown. The hammering of a steel ‘peg’ into a tree will not do any damage to it. It may cause the tree to lose some sap in the short term but will not do any medium or long term damage to it.

All Metalbirds we stock at Blackbird Corner are made in Melbourne, Australia.
