About These Birds

Bermuda Hawk

The Bermuda Hawk was a large hawk that was endemic to Bermuda and became extinct shortly after human settlement of the islands in the early 17th century. Known only from subfossil bones, it was probably a broad-winged raptor that preyed on seabirds and other island fauna. Habitat destruction and hunting contributed to its extinction.
