The '''great black hawk''' (''Buteogallus urubitinga'') is a [[bird of prey]] of the family Accipitridae, and found over much of Latin America.
==Description==
The great black hawk is a moderately large, broad-winged bird; about 22 to 25 inches long, a wingspan of 45.3 to 53.2 inches, and weighs up to 21.1 to 49.3 ounces. Females are slightly larger than males. Overall, adult birds are brownish-black to black in color, offset by yellow legs and bill cere, and a broad white band on the tail. Juvenile birds are a dark brown above, a somewhat lighter brown below, and mottled with spots and streaks.
The call is described as a shrill ''"ooo-wheeeeee"'', in addition to a series of rapid-fire shrieks<ref>https://www.xeno-canto.org/species/Buteogallus-urubitinga</ref>.
