Savanna Hawk (Buteogallus meridionalis) - 11Aug2022

The Savanna Hawk is a striking hawk in the genus Buteogallus which includes the Black Hawks. However, the Savanna Hawk has a much more interesting color scheme with a barred rufous body and black linings to the wings.  This mainly South American hawk can also make its way into Panama.  I have seen them in Colombia and in the Pantanal in Brazil where I obtained these photos.
