The Cuban Black-Hawk is an endemic bird of prey to Cuba and it has been reported seen on the Cayman Islands. It has a somewhat similar appearance to the Common Black-Hawk that is seen in North America and southward into the Central American countries. This large hawk feeds on prey from the sea and interior waters.
