Hawks

Hawk is a common name for some small to medium-sized diurnal birds of prey, widely distributed and varying greatly in size.These are called buzzards in other parts of the world.                                             The common names of some birds include the term "hawk", reflecting traditional usage rather than taxonomy, such as referring to an osprey as a "fish hawk" or a peregrine falcon as a "duck hawk".Falconry was also called "hawking", and any bird used for falconry could be referred to as a hawk.^[3]The accipitrine hawks generally take birds as their primary prey. They have also been called "hen-hawks", or "wood-hawks" because of their woodland habitat.Hawks are cool birds.
