Eremophila alpestris
Their back is brown and the belly is gray. They have a distinctive yellow face with a black mask, and they have "horns" they can lift up on top of the head as seen in the last photo.
They are found in North America, Europe, and Asia on open ground. These were seen in the pastures on the side of the road.

Nice series; I'd never heard of these lovely birds before.
