Pūteketeke / Crested Grebe in your own patch.
Our steel Pūteketeke brings that unmistakable crested-grebe silhouette to the garden. Choose the spot first, then give the silhouette a clear backdrop so it can stand out among the leaves.
Steel that changes with the seasons.
Corten weathering steel starts grey and 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 sound timber and leave room around the silhouette. Hold the mounting spike at a slight downward angle and gently tap its thick end with a hammer or mallet until secure. Avoid striking the bird or fine cut detail. Dense hardwood may need a pilot hole. Wear gloves and eye protection.
