Oceanview, Illinois is a fictional Illinois city featured in Follow That Bird. Big Bird flies there to join his new foster family, the Dodos.

When Big Bird flies on the plane from Sesame Street to Oceanview, a map animation that shows the plane's route can easily be spotted almost precisely to St. Louis, Missouri. Coincidentally, in Big Bird's daydream of his new bird family, it shows a sports pennant of the St. Louis, Cardinals baseball team.
