Lorrie with Mandarin
Lorrie Schumacher,
Master Falconer


Lorrie has created a uniquely innovative and inspiring Bird Of Prey Experience. Talons! has been featured at Land Trust and Conservation Center Events, Schools, USFWS, Boy Scouts of America, Weddings, Church Services, Animal Therapy, Sportsmen's Shows, and Corporate Events. Lorrie's mission is to stress the importance of the role of Raptors in the Global Environment and Man's Responsibility to the Balance of the Planet.

One look into the ancient eyes of a raptor, and a human truly knows humility.  Catch a Raptor on your fist and you'll feel your heart jump like never before!  You'll feel alive!

Talon Skye, Inspiration

Talon is the Inspiration for TALONS!, (originally "TALON'S SKY), and makes it very clear that the "Show was named for HER!". From her first hunting trip at 5 months, she has lived the life of an Environmentalist and a Falconer, her first word, "whoooo", mimicking a GHO.  She has met and befriended: 
Dr. Heinz Meng, Jean Craighead George,
President and Senator Hillary Clinton, to "name drop" just a few!  Talon awes audiences with her special relationship with her Eagle Owl, Mandarin and her presentation that highlights her innate understanding of Raptors'  importance in the "Balance of Life. It's all about keeping the Balance, People!".
