Records. Table 3.
The Roadside Hawk was identified by its size (ca 40 cm long), shape, and color pattern. The individual was mainly brownish grey with a touch of rufous on the wings. The lower breast and underparts were barred brown and white, and the tail had grey bars. As the common name suggests, we frequently observed these hawks foraging on BR-262 roadsides.
