Taken on 8-21-2022 at Sepulveda Basin in Van Nuys, CA. The placement of the dark patch on the face has me confused. Both photos are of the same bird.

Taken on 12-10-2021 at Silverlake Reservoir in Silverlake (Los Angeles), CA. The three photos of the male are all the same bird. I believe this is a Greater Scaup, but would like confirmation. I'm not sure about the female (this is the only angle I have of it).

Taken on 11-4-2021 in the late afternoon at Hansen Dam Debris Basin in Lakeview Terrace (Los Angeles) CA. This one sandpiper was hanging out with a couple of dowitchers. I thought it was a Least Sandpiper. I decided to see what Merlin had to say about the photo of the single bird. It gave the following suggestions in order: Semipalmated Sandpiper Baird's Sandpiper Least Sandpiper White-rumped Sandpiper What do you all think?

The bird in flight was taken 1-2-2021 in late afternoon above the Los Angeles River in Atwater Village, CA. The white rump makes me think Northern Harrier, but under-wing pattern and streaking on the breast seem more representative of a Red-shouldered Hawk -- although a Northern Harrier has similar patterning. The bird in the tree was taken 1-3-2021 in the afternoon at Hansen Dam, Los Angeles, CA. I believe this is a Red-shouldered Hawk, but wish I could see the tail pattern.
