Metalbird Seconds - Lesser Florican
Description
** PLEASE NOTE THESE BIRDS ARE SECONDS**
At Metalbird, we embrace even the ugliest of ducklings. All of our birds go through a rigorous quality control process, inspecting for even the smallest of cosmetic imperfections. Any birds that fall short of our expectations are then set aside for a second(s) chance.
Cosmetic imperfections range from surface scratches, material imprints or irregularities, over-sanding, light flashes, textured edges, minor dents and bends, or patina bloom. Please see photos of fault examples.
We offer the same great product you know and love, but with small manufacturing defects, at a big savings. This process allows us to produce less waste and is a great deal for you - sounds like a tweet deal! Best of all, once your Metalbird begins its life cycle developing the rich beautiful patina, you’ll never know.

✓ 32cm high by 21cm wide approximately 300g
✓ Made locally in a family-owned factory, right here in the UK
✓ Crafted from 3mm Corten steel and designed to last a lifetime
✓ Easy to install holding on a downwards angle simply tap the thickest end of the stake with a hammer or mallet until secure

Metalbird Seconds - Lesser Florican
AS SEEN IN
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.
what’s the word on the bird?
