Went to Manning today. We walked from the Strawberry Flats parking lot along the road to the Ski Area. It was fairly active with Hermit Thrush and Townsend's Warblers singing and Sooty Grouse hooting. One surprise was a Nashville Warbler about 1.6km from the parking lot.
A pair of Cassin's Finch were feeding at the ski area.

Evening Grosbeaks were here as well

After, we walked around Lightning Lake. There was a mother Barrow's Goldeneye and 10 young. It was neat watching the young dive.

We saw five deer but no bears. Always enjoyable to go to Manning.
