Hawk Talk: Ask an Expert

Hawk Talk is a question and answer forum which allows you to ‘ask the experts’ (Hawks Aloft biologists) about all species of birds, from raptors to songbirds, and all others too.

What was that bird?

  • Ever wonder what that bird is that regularly visits your feeder?
  • How about that large bird of prey that seems to be nesting in the trees out back?
  • Are there any endangered bird species in New Mexico?
  • How can I attract goldfinches to my feeders?

Hawks Aloft would like to help you with these and other bird-related questions!
