We are grateful to our friends at the Belize Hawk Watch for all they do to monitor and conserve raptors. Support their research efforts with a T-shirt purchase! All funds support sustaining their count and tracking importantΒ species like Hook-billed Kites!

Is it starting to feel chilly up on your hawkwatch?
Stay warm in style with cozy HMA gear! Our hooded sweatshirts are now just $35, and knit beanies only $20, perfect for those crisp migration mornings. Stock is limited, so grab yours before they fly off the shelves!

Summertime doesn’t mean the hawkwatching is over!

Now is the perfect time to view raptors up close, as they demonstrate interesting breeding behavior, including the Osprey.

View them nesting and raising young at a water body near you this summer!
