After working as a volunteer at a local falconry centre and attending various courses including raptor first-aid, Clive got his first bird - a male harris hawk - in 1994 (vowing that there would only be the one!).

Having sat idly by during the summer of 1995 whilst Chris flew her kestrel, he decided that he had to have a falcon to fly during the summer months (but only the one!).

He now has a male harris, a tiercel peregrine, aSaker falcon and a little owl.

Clive has been a member of the Raptor Trust's show team for many years and still helps out when Out On A Wing let him have the time off. During the summer of 2004, he started working with Tim & Tina, both on their shows and at Fritton Lake Falconry Centre.

He has flown owls, hawks and falcons at the Suffolk Show, Royal Norfolk Show, Eye Show, South Suffolk Show, Norfolk Police Gala and many school & village fetes throughout Norfolk & Suffolk.
