Ursula: I've been to Point Pelee but only for the birds (but that was cool enough). When are the monarchs there? There are a few left at the end of September and beginning of October. I would go late August or early September to see the most of these wonderful critters. For bird watching, there is a convention in May at McGregor Point, further up the coast of Lake Huron. People camp there at the Provincial Park.
