We lived on Hayden Island, Dragonmoo, so we were ALMOST in Vancouver. Welcome to the group and I have 1 Polish also, a red with a chocolate and white poof. Hope to get more in the spring.
Look for the "Washingtonians" thread, pop in and introduce yourself there too. Also, if you're looking for more birds, the WFF Show December 12-13 in Chehalis might be a good place to start.
