Today Marcel and I visited Mount Trashmore (Alameda County) in pursuit of longspurs. We obtained outstanding views of Lapland Longspurs...
... and my life Chestnut-collared Longspurs.
This Greater White-front was one of two birds associating with the Canada Goose flock.
On Coyote Point, we tried our best to turn this bird into a Clay-colored Sparrow, but of course it turned out to be a Chipping Sparrow (note eye-stripe extending up to the bill and extensive grey rump).
