I was fortunate enough to spot the individual in this post at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge where it was foraging in bushes and small trees between four and fifteen off of the ground.

The Great Black Hawk – a species with a native range in Mexico to South America – had been spotted in this park for weeks, but not every day. The general mood was one of gratitude, and everyone passed camera lenses and binoculars back and forth to share the experience. Great Black Hawk in Portland Maine.
