Bar-Tailed Godwit
A shorebird for your own patch.
The long bill and fine feather cut-outs give this Godwit its distinctive profile. The silhouette includes the grasses around its feet, making a little coastal scene on a timber post. 10% of sales go directly to BirdLife Australia.
Steel that changes with the seasons
Corten weathering steel develops a natural rust-coloured patina outdoors. Rain, drying and exposure affect the colour and pace of change. Allow for rusty runoff, which can mark pale paving, walls, pots and indoor surfaces.
Choose a perch. Tap it in.
Choose suitable sound timber and a clear backdrop. Hold the mounting spike at a slight downward angle and gently tap its thick end into the timber with a hammer or mallet. Avoid striking the bird or fine cut detail. Dense hardwood may need a pilot hole. Follow the supplied instructions and wear gloves and eye protection.
