Nobby is not the only star from the West Country.
Lloyd and Rose Buck from Bristol have been living with and training birds for more than 30 years.
From eagles to geese, to goshawks to starlings, their birds have starred in various productions such as Conquest of the Skies (2015) with David Attenborough.
Their goshawks Mabel and Lottie starred in these roles to illustrate their behaviours in the documentary.
Mr Buck said that nearly all of the birds are hand-raised and they get them used to being around cameras, drones, green screens, blue screens.
He added: “There’s no big secret to it. It’s just time, patience and observation.”
He explained that, “just because one bird of a breed is good at something, another bird of the same breed might be better at something else.”
This could be said for the movie ‘H’ is for Hawkes, which came out January this year.
It starred Claire Foy and four different goshawks, including Mabel, and Lottie which all played the same bird.
He added: “Just as people have characteristics, so do birds, but it’s spending all your time with them to see their personalities.
“When you live with them you’ll find things that they like and what they don’t, and that then helps us tell [the crews] what ways they can film.”
