|Squawks is a green parrot whose role has varied throughout the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' series.

In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' and ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' (as well as their respective counterparts, ''Donkey Kong Land 2'' and ''Donkey Kong Land III''), Squawks can fly the Kongs through the level, usually only segments. In ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' and ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', Squawks helps the Kongs find [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Piece]]s.
