Harris' Hawk, Jack Hanna's Wild Reserve, Busch Gardens Williamsburg, Virginia



This Harris' Hawk is one of the beautiful animals on display at Busch Gardens Williamsburg's Jack Hanna's Wild Reserve.  It is native to the deserts in the south west of North America and is the only social hawk.  They hunt in packs and females build and share one nest in which they hatch and raise their young together.
