Picture of the day

The roadside hawk (Rupornis magnirostris) is a relatively small bird of prey in the family Accipitridae. It is found from Mexico through Central America and in most of South America east of the Andes. With the possible exception of dense rainforests, the roadside hawk is well adapted to most ecosystems in its range. It is also an urban bird, and is possibly the most common species of hawk seen in various cities throughout its range. This roadside hawk of the subspecies R. m. griseocauda was photographed feeding on a speckled racer in Orange Walk District, Belize.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp
