Ready For Its Close-Up

The snowy owl living at Montrose Beach is a media star!  Check him/her out in a photo essay in the Sun-Times, here.

We prefer the photos we ran yesterday -- much bluer sky -- but the owl yawns in these.  So cute.  As one of our commenters said, Uptown really does have everything, sometimes you just have to look.

  1. These are all such great pictures. The Tribune had a cool photo of the owl out on the pier the other day, http://www.chicagotribune.com/media/photo/2011-12/66677114.jpg.

  3. I was over there the other day and saw people with cameras but couldn't see what they were looking at. Now I know! I saw a coyote over there on the sand by the magic hedge just after sundown yesterday. It's so cool to see such beautiful wildlife in the city.

  4. The front page of today's Tribune also has a picture on the front page with the headline "Snowy Owl Invasion". There's a full page article on the influx as well
