Harris hawk,or bay-winged hawk (Parabuteo unicinctus). This bird of prey inhabits flat scrubland and plains from south-western USA to Argentina. It primarily preys on small to medium- sized rodents,birds and lizards. As is common with many birds of prey,the female Harris hawk is often larger than the male,and is capable of catching larger prey. The Harris hawk sometimes hunts in pairs,with both birds hunting the same prey. The Harris hawk is a popular choice of bird with falconers | |
