INSTALL IS EASY AS
The perfect spot for your bird is in a post, fence, tree or wall against the clear sky or a light single colour. You are the artist. Then simply grab a hammer and tap it in. If the wood is hard, drill a small hole first
Step 1: Open
Step 2: Hammer
Step 3: Enjoy

PROUDLY MADE RIGHT HERE IN NEW ZEALAND
Because we believe in staying local and supporting local, Metalbirds are crafted right here from NZ steel in a local, family-owned factory.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY
Being a sustainable business is super important to us. From using recycled local steel to recycled cardboard packaging and more, we’re on track to becoming carbon negative by 2021.

GLOBAL ART PROJECT
When you install your Metalbird you become an artist in your own backyard and part of The Metalbird Global Art Project. Please take a pic of your bird and share it with the hashtag #mymetalbird. We can’t wait to see it!

SPONSORS OF THE INCREDIBLE FOREST & BIRD
In New Zealand we’re sponsoring Forest & Bird, supporting remarkable work to restore native bird populations.

FROM MY BACKYARD TO YOURS
What inspired me in 2009 to create life-sized native bird silhouettes out of metal?
I loved creating the birds, sure, but the biggest kick I got was from installing them in parks and streets around my neighbourhood (anywhere I thought I wouldn’t get arrested, basically) and seeing the surprise, delight and intrigue they caused.
Once they saw them, people wanted Metalbirds of their own. My little art project became a side hustle then a full-time job, and finally, with a small team, we took Metalbird to the world. The artistic act of tapping a bird into a post or tree and transforming your environment is something that brings joy to people all over the globe.
We love what we do and we love what you do. So thanks and welcome to the global art project.
