Tina began working with Birds of Prey by helping Tim with his first bird. She soon acquired her own also in 1993, a Dark Breasted Barn Owl named Coco (Who died in 2009 at the grand age of 16 yrs).

She now flies a variety of birds ranging from owls to falcons and hawks.

Tina is a confirmed bookworm with her head permanently buried between the pages, muttering to herself (SHE says she's talking to the birds - gets more sense out of them!).

As a professionally trained chef, Tina normally gets the job of dissecting any carcasses that come our way.
