His experience includes banding kestrels and owls in nesting boxes, hunting with various species as a falconer, and conducting educational programs with non-releasable raptors including Liberty, a Bald Eagle, for almost 20 years. In the 1990’s he maintained a captive wolf pack and a pair of mountain lions at his Lyndonville facility. Paul is also a nature photographer and a writer. His photographs and articles have appeared in many periodicals and newsletters.
