P.S. The sighting of five butterflies this year refers to particular regions where monarchs are typically expected – “in regions where more than 100 monarchs were spotted in the province last year, fewer than five have been observed this year.” For more on this, please visit Vidya Kauri’s recent piece in G&M.

This is sad news indeed. When I was in Edmonton I saw this beautiful documentary in IMAX 3D. I highly recommend it.

Thanks for posting this trailer.. wow.. that film looks really beautiful!! It would be hard to imagine those flights taking place no longer.. 😦
the sound of no wings flapping
Yes exactly… the sound of no wings flapping..
Learning something new from S&F all the time! What will be the butterfly effect of this on my life?…
Hm, good question. I think the butterfly effect of this situation is currently chrysalid in nature.
