A sharpie just dropped over the top of my roof and tore off after a (possibly 
drunk!) starling.  I thought they shot across the yard, but the starling came 
zooming back with the hawk in hot pursuit.  The starling crashed into my 
window, the hawk nearly did, and the starling sat huddled in the corner with 
the hawk eyeing it from the apple tree.  I think the sharpie was trying to 
figure out what to do about getting to the bird the corner.   After about 5 
minutes, it flew in and dropped onto the starling, then started plucking and 
eating.

All of this happened about 6 feet away!
