I know we have them in stevens county. Had 2 fly out of a dead snag I was cutting down this summer, one buzzed us for 5 minutes afterwards it was really cool.

They haven't quite managed to glide out here to our trees.... Back in WI, when I was a kid, we had one bonzai into our camp and almost landed in the campfire. It was pretty cool to see.
