Nottingham's resident owl man - believed to be 81 - celebrates his birthday on Thursday.
Frank Shelton can often be seen walking his barn owl, Kim through the city.
Passers-by often stop Frank, of Carlton and ask him if they can stroke Kim and take a photograph with her.
The former ambulance car assistant has made quite a name for himself over the past few years and makes regular appearances at lots of festivals including the Gedling Show and the Riverside Festival.
In a past interview with the Post, Frank said: "I try to make a few jokes when she's with me. I say to people, she's the only bird I can pull at my time of life!"
