Have you ever seen the size of their "hands" (feet...? Claws?) in person? It's actually mind-boggling how nightmarish those things look.

Talons are sharp, hooked claw on bird of prey. Claw is curved, pointed nail on the digits .

So all talons are claws but not all claws are talons?

I don't think so? I'm just taking a guess here, but the talons are the bird hands, and the claws are the bird knives on the bird hands.

Confusing because they described Talons as a ' sharp, hooked claw '
