Hawk-Eye(s)

Say the words "Hawk" and "Wimbledon" together, and most people will think of Hawkeye, the high-speed multi-camera technology which tracks the trajectory of a moving ball.

But there is another type - Rufus, the Harris Hawk that is brought in to patrol the grounds and see off any would-be squatters (mainly pigeons, though I'm pretty sure I wouldn't argue with him if he wanted me to move on as well).
