Kengewa ni ndege mbua wa jenasi mbalimbali (angalia sanduku ya uainishaji) ya familia Accipitridae. Wana mabawa marefu na mwika mrefu mwenye miraba myeusi na myeupe. Kengewa mlanyuki na kengewa wa Asia hula nyuki, nyigu na asali hasa lakini spishi zingine hula wanyama wadogo. Hujenga tago lao juu ya mti msituni.
Mpaka juzi kengewa mlanyuki tu ameonwa Afrika kusini kwa Sahara, lakini mwaka 2005 kengewa wa Asia ameonwa huko Gaboni.
