Ruru

Often heard, rarely seen, it’s very hard to get a close encounter with a Ruru. It hangs out in dense forests, singing out its English name – more-pork. Silent flight is one of its superpowers along with the ability to rotate its neck 270 degrees, not to be creepy but to look for prey like moths, beetles, mice and lizards. Ruru’s big shining yellow eyes play an important part in Maori mythology and tradition. It’ll look amazing in your backyard especially with the full moon behind it.

Our Ruru is:

31cm high by 24cm wide (includes measurement of the branch/spike)
Easily installed with the tap of a hammer (pre-drill hard wood)
Crafted in 3mm Corten® 'weathering' Steel to form a beautiful patina that changes with the seasons
Makes an ideal gift for a friend who can rotate their head 270 degrees, or failing that, are fun to go out at night with
