Ray’s birds (Deborah Stratman, 2010)

A film by Deborah Stratman
Running time: 7 min 7 sec
Format: 16mm

Ray Lowden keeps seventy-two large birds of prey, five deer and some wallabies at his place in Northumberland, England. He’s had ten days off in twelve years and loves what he does. The film is a little homage to his variously coy, imperious, curious, stubborn and comic raptor menagerie.
