The Barred Hawk is a distinctive medium-sized raptor of the Neotropics, known for its intricate barring pattern on its underparts. It is a powerful hunter of dense tropical forests.
Where to spot
Found in Central and South America, from Honduras to Bolivia and Brazil. It inhabits tropical moist lowland and montane forests.
How to spot
Scan the forest canopy and mid-story for its distinctive barring. Its powerful flight is direct. Listen for its loud, ringing calls, which often reveal its presence.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, often seen perched high in the canopy or soaring briefly above the forest. Observable year-round.
This hawk often perches silently and camouflaged within the dense forest canopy, patiently waiting to ambush unsuspecting birds or mammals below.
