Had nice views of a Northern Harrier around the marina at Col Sam this morning. It went to ground on the south side of the marina, so we wandered over for a look and flushed it, it appeared it had been feeding on a dead mute swan whose fresh looking carcass was lying there with exposed flesh. See the green arrow on the map for the location:

Also Green Winged Teal, American Wigeon, American Coot in the northern most bay, east side of the park among the Mallards and Gadwall.
