Behavior
Introduction
Hunts from a perch, often at the forest edge. White Hawk also sometimes follows brown capuchin monkeys (Zhang and Wang 2000), squirrel monkeys (Boinski and Scott 1988), and white-nosed coatis (Booth-Binczik et al. 2004) to capture flushed prey, such as arboreal snakes or arthropods.
White Hawk regularly soars over the forest canopy.
Territoriality
Very little information. Thiollay (1994) estimated a density of 0.25 pairs/100 ha.
Sexual Behavior
Social and interspecific behavior
White Hawk usually is solitary.
Predation
There are no records of predation on White Hawk.
