Susan Pellegrini and I found Last Chance (Washington County) to be pretty slow this morning, but eventually did find a Field Sparrow and a light-morph juvenile Broad-winged Hawk in the area. Other birds included Common Yellowthroat, Orange-crowned Warbler, Yellow-rumped Warbler, Song Sparrow, Lincoln's Sparrow, White-crowned Sparrow, and my first Pink-sided and Slate-colored Juncos of the season.
At Pipit Hill (Yuma County, near the former Bonny Reservoir), there were many Horned Larks to sort through, but we did also find at least 3 Sprague's Pipits, 2 in flight that vocalized, and 1 adult on the ground that provided close and extended views. We thought we likely saw and/or heard at least a few other Sprague's Pipits in flight, but were not able to make definite IDs on those.
We did not find any birds at all in the playas along Hwy 36 on our way out to Pipit Hill.
