Horned Lark (Eremophila alpestris)
He was not at all intimidated by our presence, sitting calmly as we admired him and even turning his back on us long enough for us all to get a good look at his "horns."
If you look closely, you can even see the subtle yellow highlights around his eyes (hard to make out in the bright late morning light).
