AMERICAN BARN OWL

The American Barn Owl (Tyto furcata) – A ghostly pale guardian of the night, embodying the mystique of the nocturnal world. With its striking white face and chest, contrasted by buffy upperparts, this silent predator roosts in hidden, quiet places during the day, emerging at dusk to hunt with graceful buoyant wingbeats across open fields and meadows. Listen closely for their eerie, raspy calls—far removed from the typical hoots of other owls. In 2024, ornithologists recognized the American Barn Owl as one of three distinct species of Barn Owl, with its relatives found in other parts of the world. This remarkable owl boasts exceptional low-light vision and is unparalleled in its ability to locate prey by sound alone, able to catch mice in complete darkness or concealed by snow and vegetation. When this ethereal creature graces your outdoor space, it brings an air of enchanting mystery, making your garden a sanctuary for one of nature's most fascinating hunters.

Bring a piece of the wild into your world with Rustic Perch, where artistry, nature, and craftsmanship soar together!

At Rustic Perch, we blend art, nature, and craftsmanship to create lifelike metal bird sculptures that transform any outdoor space. Handcrafted in America from durable CorTen weathering steel, each bird is designed to evolve with the seasons, naturally developing a protective patina that deepens over time into a rich brown or charcoal hue. This unique patina not only enhances your bird’s appearance but also strengthens its durability, ensuring it will last a lifetime.

CorTen steel is a self-sealing material, offering up to 100 years of protection against corrosion. What may initially appear as simple rust is actually the protective patina forming over the first six months. No need to worry—it’s doing exactly what it’s supposed to do! This layer will safeguard the steel from further wear and tear. Preserving the beauty of your rustic perch for years to come.

As a design engineer and lifelong bird enthusiast, I pour my passion for both art and ornithology into every creation. From hand-drawing each bird to bringing it to life with meticulous precision, our goal is simple: to make you smile when you discover these beautiful, lifelike birds perched in your own yard.
