Artist Jim Mullan took vintage hunting decoys shaped like crows and small birds and turned them into steampunk bird sculptures!

Really using the word “steampunk” loosely here.
Like, drunken-sorority-girl loose.

I’m not a fan of steampunk, but I love these! Probably because of what Wes said

Can’t help thinking “Bagpuss” & espeically “Professor Yaffle”…
Nice work though.

Yeah, moratorium on the word “steampunk,” please? These birds are way too lovely to marginalize like that…

I see neither steam nor punk in those pictures, but they do look like cheap knockoffs of the brass owl from Clash of the Titans.

You should also check out Leo Sewell who uses found objects to creat anatomically correct sculptures often in huge scale. Amazing stuff!

Thats more recycled junk than steampunk. Cool but not necessarily steampunk.
