Tobimaru (飛丸) is a messenger hawk of Sunagakure.
Appearance
Tobimaru is a hawk with brown eyes and dark-brown feathers, except of those on his chest, face and a rhombus-shaped spot on his forehead, which are coloured white. He wears a grey backpack that features the kanji of his name (飛丸) on the front.
Abilities
Tobimaru, although being merely a rookie, exceeds all expectations in his displayed speed, which is said to be equal to or be even greater than that of his father Takamaru — hitherto Sunagakure's fastest messenger hawk.[1]

Trivia
- "Tobi" (飛), means "fly", while "-maru" (丸) is a common suffix for male names meaning "perfection" or "full circle".
- The fourth databook connects Takamaru and Tobimaru as father and son. However, Takamaru's given age in the third databook is three years,[2] while Tobimaru was said to be five in the fourth databook.[1]
