Peregrine falcon attacks snowy owl- pictures
Chicago's hosting of the snowy owls on the lakefront has not been all in the owls favor. There are fierce predatores that live here and must be contended with.

The beautiful young Snowy did an excellent job of defending itself.

What a sight that must have been. Can you imagine happening upon such a conflict between two such awesome birds. And right on the beach here in Chicago!
