Accipiters (bird hawks) will. Usually, hawks like the Cooper's, sharp shinned, and goshawk (accipiters) attack birds their own size or smaller. There have been records of Cooper's hawks attacking nesting shorebirds at Emerald Island, North Carolina. Accipiters are rare on coastal beaches, but if a few reside there, there is little doubt shorebirds will be on the menu.
