WITH support from Business Gateway Argyll and Bute, a former firefighter has turned his falconry hobby into a popular business.
Paul Finnigan, from Oban, set up Finn Falconry with his wife Lynn and zoologist daughter Jen, who share his passion for wildlife.
Paul offers close-up experiences of different types of birds of prey, providing flying displays at shows and fairs, talks and lectures, hands-on hawk walks, bird abatement and hunting experiences.
