Here's my thought on a natural unusual sight:

In the state of Mexico (note: state not D.F.), near the border of Michoacan,
every year millions of monarch butterflies from Canada and the United States.  
arrive in one small valley. The trees are so covered with butterflies that
you cannot see the leaves or the branches.  In the morning hours the butterflies
take to the air and block the sun.

I believe they are there for a few months.  Contact Mexican tourist office
for more information.  You would need a car to reach it and a small "tip"
to the gateman.
