We're planning on heading towards Puget Sound SOMETIME during the
holidays (we're old Whidbey freaks.) Does anyone have any idea where the
snow geese are hanging out this year? Last year we had extraordinary
luck at (I think it's called) Fir Island. That is, until a stupid dog
scared off the flock. Three minutes of blissful joy and three lifetimes
worth of hatred of unleashed dogs....hmmmm...maybe I should chill out...

Anyways, we'd love to know if there's a dependable place to see them this
year (and Harlequin Ducks, if anyone knows that).
Thanks a lot,
