During an unseasonably warm weekend Oak Park’s wildlife population seemed all but eager to pose for some extraordinary photos.

On Saturday morning Jakob Eriksson spotted a pair of coyotes in his yard near the corner of East Avenue and Superior Street. One of the coyotes was enjoying a breakfast of pheasant.

The next day on the 500 north block Sarah and Alex Hoffman grabbed this photo of – what one can only assume is – a different pheasant perched on their fence.
