I just witnessed a Sharp-shinned Hawk successfully kill a Steller's Jay.  It's 
sitting on the ground eating the jay right now.  The Steller's Jay is about the 
same size as the hawk, although the Sharp-shinned would outweigh the jay at 
about 5 oz. vs.3.7 oz.  I'm amazed that a Sharp-shinned Hawk would go for a 
bird that large.
