Was watching  two Solitary Sandpipers chase each other around the Tigertown Rd. Beaver pond in Norwich. One landed on a stump and was immediately attacked by a Sharp-shinned Hawk. The hawk missed, and landed briefly in a nearby tree before moving on. Pretty sure it was a Sharpie. Smallish, small head, long tail.
