This morning was quite a morning while I took a few minutes to enjoy nature. I saw quite a bit in the minutes I was there. I took these late this morning. I haven't seen either of these around here before. I will be uploading more when time permits. I was wondering if anyone on here knows what exact species these two are. Thanks in advance.

I'm stuck between Uta and sceloperus, but leaning slightly towards sceloperus. Something about the roughness of the scales. An aerial shot would help, since the profile is the quickest and most reliable ID method for these. A location and habitat might help too.
