Audubon Magazine's blog, The Perch, has a nice post on the Snowy Owls that have been appearing in spots like the Meadowlands where they are infrequent fliers.
Better yet, it offers some basic rules of owl etiquette, including this one:
"Do not disturb a sleeping owl, or chase it to get a better view or a photograph. This can be extremely harmful to owls, many of which are already stressed from their arduous journeys to unknown territories."
