Baby Bird Bundle - Tūī Trio
Three tiny Tūīs, ready to sing their way into someone’s garden.
The Baby Tūī Bundle brings together a trio of one of Aotearoa’s most loved and recognisable birds — bold, cheeky, and full of personality. Known for their loud, liquid songs and flashes of iridescent blue-green, Tūī have become icons of both bush and backyard life in NZ.
Each mini Tūī comes packed in its own envelope, making this bundle perfect for gifting to friends, family, teachers, or keeping all to yourself. Crafted in NZ from weathering Corten® steel, they’ll hold their charm and strength for years — even if they don’t sing quite as loudly as the real thing.

AS SEEN IN
Most of our steel bird silhouettes are cut from 3 mm Corten weathering steel. Check the individual product for its material, thickness and manufacturing origin: wooden birds, clothing and other products have their own specifications.
Why does Corten steel change colour?
Outdoors, the steel develops a natural rust patina. Grey gives way to orange and brown tones, with the setting and weather doing their bit. The colour and timing vary. It is unpainted steel, so a permanent black finish is not part of the deal.
Where should I put it?
Choose a spot with good drainage. Rusty runoff can mark pale paving, pots and walls, particularly while the steel is weathering. Follow the mounting instructions for your particular bird or feeder.

The Patina Process:
That first flash of orange? Your steel bird is settling in. Corten weathering steel develops a natural rust patina, changing through orange and brown tones as it spends time outdoors.
How long does patina take?
There is no fixed timetable or guaranteed final colour. Rain, humidity, airflow and the position you choose all affect how the surface changes.
Will it stain nearby surfaces?
Rusty runoff can mark paving, pots and walls, especially during early weathering. Leave room around pale surfaces and choose a location where water can drain freely.
Is my bird painted black?
Corten birds are unpainted steel. Their finish changes naturally; they are not intended to stay permanently black. Check your product page for the exact material and care instructions.
