Waxeye / Tauhou & Chicks

Some days the garden can feel like wall-to-wall Waxeyes, flitting about with their pretty green heads and white eye-rings. They absolutely love fruit and, being so small, can pop niftily in and out of bird netting helping itself to anything you care to grow. A great wee mum, Tauhou can pop out two broods of pale blue eggs in a season and hatch them in her tiny cup-shaped nest lined with soft grass, moss, hair, and spiderwebs, slung like a hammock between branches. We’ve captured her in supermum mode, feeding her chicks.

Our Tauhou & Chicks are:

• 17cm high by 36cm 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
• The perfect gift for your mum, at any time of the year
