Proud of my heritage

A northern Geordie Englishman (someone who is born in Newcastle upon Tyne) l am proud of my heritage as a Falconer, Owl and Bird of prey Keeper, Rescuer and my activities that have helped countless thousands of people with life skill problems.

l am fortunate to have been involved with these unique birds, having helped many countless thousands of Owls and Birds of prey, at the same time, privileged to have helped  people, with all kinds of life skill problems, through these birds in my own time, unpaid.

Breaking down barriers

In general, what you see is what you get, fortunate to have mixed with people from all walks of life, that include, Royalty, very wealthy individuals, disadvantaged people and every section of society, my approach is straightforward and honest, especially when it comes to Owls and Birds of prey, most certainly never telling people just what they want to hear, an approach people find refreshing, but unfortunately, l do tend upset a small minority of people who just want to listen to what they want to hear.

Life long work

With an interest and hands on experience, my work has spanned more years than l can remember, l am now retired and continuing my voluntary works as ever.

Not only have l set up charitable bird of prey organisations, built bird of prey and owl rescue centers, l have devised and developed specialist schemes for people with many different kinds of life skills problems, as on this Website.
My techniques, method and approach

My approach has always very different, putting birds to sleep is the last thing on my mind, first of all, in most cases,food and water is the first thing l would administer if applicable, , l would then devise what treatment is required and what would be the plan for each case, be it release back to the wild or otherwise, with a target for success and recovery.

In some cases l will administer five different grade of food, as l have always developed my own recovery formulas, this is always administered along side food, with different treatments for whatever problems a bird may have, once recovered wild birds are put back to the wild, if disabled, this can be a litter more difficult, so a plan is devised for its rehoming future.

l have developed a range of other methods and equipment for bad,broken feet and bumble foot, l have even build equipment and prosthetic to help birds recover, with whatever is required at the time.

If anyone wishes to speak to me with regards my work, then just contact me.

Thanks for reading my information

Kind regards.
