I went to Manning Park today, did a little loop at Spruce Bay and the Lakes trail. Did not find anything unexpected, ebird checklist attached.

I then went on a "what will I find" excursion, drove out of the Park and when we went over Sunday Summit started looking for a road. Two and a half kilometers past the summit was a road that looked like it might go down to Sunday Creek. A kilometer down the road I started walking up and down the road, it was instant satisfaction. There were lots of Vireo and Warblers and a few Flycatchers and "others'. I didn't go far as the thunder was rolling in and my wife didn't want to be downhill of the highway in a deluge.

Interestingly, I stopped at Sunday Summit and could not see any birds, or hear any. We went uphill on the logging road and checked a few side roads and openings, looking, listening and Merlin. Total observations were zero, none heard, Merlin suggestions zero.
