'''Hawks''' are avian enemies that can be found in the [[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Game Boy ''Donkey Kong'']]. They are stubby and display broad crests that cover their heads. They seem to draw inspiration from {{wp|bird of prey|birds of prey}}, as they have a raptorial beak, sharp talons, and pointed feathers.

Hawks first appear in [[Stage 2-9]] of the [[Forest (Donkey Kong)|Forest]]. Their [[Bird Nest|nest]] lies on a platform next to [[elevator]]s, primarily accessible by riding the elevator on the left up to the nest. The nest spawns an indefinite amount of Hawks, which, upon slowly rising up from their small cottages, begin to fly in a straight line. They make a short descent and turn in the opposite direction whenever they encounter the screen's margins, continuing their usual flight afterwards. The aforementioned nest spawns one Hawks at a time, and each bird leaves the stage's area permanently after turning twice, subsequently allocating room to another Hawks. Whenever Hawks spot [[Mario]] beneath them during their flight, they briefly stop to drop an egg. Should the egg hit Mario, he loses a life; on the other hand, it can be deflected and neutralized with a [[handstand]]. The birds themselves are also dangerous to touch from any side, but can be defeated by simply throwing an object, such as a [[key]], at them. They reappear in [[Stage 8-3]] and [[Stage 8-16]] of [[Rocky-Valley]].

Hawks are identical in behavior to [[Kaibādo]] and [[Bird (Donkey Kong series)|Bird]]s, which are other successors of [[Nitpicker]]s.

''Similar but different bird from the Kaibādo (P51). They come out of their nests and wander around in the sky. If you stay in the same place for a long time, it will drop things, so be careful up there even if they are not on the screen.''
