Rare. Radiant. At risk.

The Regent Honeyeater is one of Australia’s most beautiful and critically endangered birds. With golden streaked wings and a melodic call, it once thrived across the southeast — but habitat loss and competition from aggressive species have pushed it to the brink.

Crafted in collaboration with BirdLife Australia, this silhouette supports real conservation work. 10% of every sale goes toward habitat restoration and protection for the Regent Honeyeater and other threatened birds.

This piece isn’t just beautiful garden art — it’s a quiet statement of care and a visible reminder of the biodiversity we risk losing.

Purpose-driven design... 29cm high × 20cm wide, approx. 300g
Easy to send... packed in A4 box (31cm × 21cm × 1cm)
Same-day dispatch... on orders placed before 12pm
Made in Australia... in a family-owned local workshop
Built to last... 3mm Corten steel forms a protective patina
Simple install... tap stake into timber or soil

Make space for something worth protecting.

  1. Pick a spot with sunlight and visibility — this bird deserves attention.
  2. Hold at a downward angle to anchor the stake securely.
  3. Tap with a mallet or hammer until fully inserted.
  4. Surround with native flowering plants if possible.
  5. Stand back and remember what you’re helping to save.

Top Tip: Looks especially striking near bottlebrush, eucalyptus or grevillea.

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.
