RAPTORS

Raptors, such as hawks, falcons, and eagles, are iconic inhabitants of Niagara’s skies, serving as top predators in the region’s ecosystems. The escarpment and wooded areas provide excellent nesting and hunting grounds, supporting species like the red-tailed hawk and the bald eagle. Open grasslands also attract raptors like the northern harrier, which relies on these spaces for its aerial hunting techniques.
