Filming Monarch Butterflies
Sat, Aug 29, 1:00 PMWe are going to film monarch butterflies! Every year, monarch butterflies gather here to prepare for their extraordinary southbound migration to Mexico. Late August is the peak time to see that transition, offering rare opportunities to film colorful close-ups, aerial courtships, and, with some luck, the first signs of their epic mass migration. Other possible sightings include swallows and great blue herons.

So let's do another film locations extravaganza and have some fun in the mean time. I love this tour.** Mary Pickford stares into the camera. Born on University Avenue, she became the girl with the golden curls, the first Hollywood star, and now Toronto is the star! Good Will Hunting, Pacific Rim, X-Men, Robocop, Total Recall, Prom Night, Suicide Squad, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Police Academy, and the list goes on and on and on. It was back in the 1920s that Toronto emerged as a shy newcomer. But it stepped up to the camera, smiled, and went to work. The first real feature movie was "The Man From Toronto," even though it was not filmed here, and in the late 60s Toronto was "Goin' Down the Road," that the city was Hollywood bound. And it wasn't just movies! Television movies, series, documentaries, music videos and video games were all shot here in Toronto. Award shows such as The Genie's, Juno's, the Canadian Screen Awards, Giller Prize and The Much Music Video Awards are all celebrated here! Let's find out where the movies came alive with this unique walking tour! This walking tour is for all walking levels and fitness skills. Please dress for the season and bring water.
