More About the Author

It would be safe to say that Rebecca enjoys animals. Although she no longer works at free flight bird shows, her three small parrots, Brittany, falcon and flock of pigeons keep her training skills honed and keep her entertained.

Living a life dedicated to "birds and words", Rebecca currently works as a Director of Development for Ducks Unlimited, where she raises awareness and funds for wetlands conservation. Her spare time is dedicated to falconry, parrots and book projects.

Rebecca's newest book is a falconry memoir, LIFT, a book about the first season with her first peregrine falcon, Anakin and their adventures hunting near the Salton Sea. It's a book about finding oneself and making amends with the past while seeking freedom in the shadow of a peregrine.

Rebecca hopes that her life's work will somehow help people understand their connection to animals and the earth and to relish it.
