100's of Monarch Butterflies

I was at Point Pelee the other day and I spotted 1000's of Monarch Butterflies.

We were filming them fluttering around, when something startled the group and they all took flight at once.

This time last year "Experts" were saying they were in danger of becoming extinct.

Doggy Saviour

Thank you to the Doggy Saviour who admitted my pooch at the Animal Care and Control Centre (ACCC) on Tuesday, Oct 14. My dog, Boopy, was found in Millwoods, which is about 30 mins away from the ACCC without traffic. Judging from the time the ACCC phoned me, you must've dropped Boopy off around rush hour. Thank you. What a relief that you to brought her to safety! We were still at work so didn't even know she had gone missing, only our other dog knew and he was very upset. Thank you, once again, for your good deed.

Cutie at St Clair College

I was worried you would think I was staring because of your walking cane, but it was actually because of how cute I thought you were. Talked to you for a few seconds, but you were with your mom and I was shy.

Want fit kids? have them walk to school!

To the parents who drop off their kids by pulling up beside, in front or behind the wheelchair bus where all the children who only wish they could walk sit and wonder why, at least mine does.

My son is in a wheelchair. He can not walk.
This a.m. I had to drive something to his school for the first time since he started at school. He takes the wheelchair bus. Much to my dismay as I pulled up to the school where the bus comes in there was a line of cars a block and half long dropping off students. I watched about 30 cars. Now, I can understand on a rainy stormy day. a big project needs bringing in, a disorder that isn't visible, or some other excuse to drop your kid off at school and not inspire them to walk. However, it occurs to me bussing is only available beyond 2 km's from the school which means these kids certainly could be walking. When else do they get exercise? what other sports or activities are they in that excuse them from walking to school? If you are concerned about how obese your child is or is becoming don't you think this would be a good start? Have them walk to school and walk home! You are not doing them a favour by driving them, you would be promoting health and fitness and a better lifestyle if you have them walk. At least drop them off at the corner with the 4 way stop and get them to walk 50 feet to the door of the school instead of pulling up beside, in front, behind the wheelchair bus where all the children who only wish they could walk sit and wonder why, at least mine does. Take it from a mom who wishes her son could walk to school, if this message inspires one parent to have their child get the exercise they need I will have succeeded in this rant! Thank you. Walk with them! I'm sure you need the exercise too!

So I just want to spot some people who rarely get a positive shout out. The Windsor police. My grandfather has dementia and was having one of his episodes yesterday where he was highly agitated and causing some issues for my grandmother. .. long story short she felt the need to call police and they in turn felt he needed to be taken to hospital. I wish I had gotten the female officers name but alas I did not. However I did take notice of not only your kindness and compassion with not only my grandfather at his home... but also the care and compassion you showed by staying with him at hospital until I arrived. This officer surprised me when 3 hours later showed up bedside again claiming she wanted to check in with me to see how I was doing. I'm not sure if you yourself have gone through something like this perhaps in your family ... but I want you to know how appreciative I am of your kindness and your compassion. You truly made a difficult night much easier.

Dog hit and run

Hi spotted, would just like to give a HUGE spotted to the scum who decided to not go to the house across the street after hitting my mothers LARGE pyrenees last night, he got off his chain and got hit dead by someone who didn't even have the decency to stop to tell her what they'd done. I would just like to put it out there if this person is reading this, not only did you kill a dog and drive away like it was nothing BUT you took away a little boys BEST FRIEND. I hope you're ashamed of yourself for not stepping up and admitting what you did.
