Henry Thoreau once noted that the hooting of owls "faintly suggests the infinite roominess of nature." Strangely, as rural landscapes give way to ever-burgeoning urban spaces, owls have ended up living in cities like Chicago. In fact, a parliament of approximately ten long-eared owls have been roosting in a South Loop city park for three years now, drawing binocular-toting birders and awestruck visitors by the hundreds. Tonight, North Park Village owl experts lead owlphiles of every ilk through a slideshow and an outdoor hike in search of a few nocturnal beauties.
