My 2 Jack Rustles have been acting nervous the last few days. Today we were sitting watching tv when I heard rumbling start and get louder (like an airplane flying too close to the ground). I paused the TV as it passed. And my dogs started barking. I looked outside to see about 20 black birds on my lawn! It was very odd.

Witness location : Dollard-Des Ormeaux (Canada) (55 km E from epicenter)

Time : T0+ 104 min

Heard the rumbling for maybe 3-4 or more seconds but no shaking.  Think  I also heard another  much shorter rumble about 6 minutes later. Did not know for sure it  was an earthquake until after the news was finished on the radio which I had turned on to heard if it was so,  and the announcer said they'd had several text messages from people reporting they'd experienced shaking or the rumbling  any where from where we live to several miles west of us....

I was lying in bed and I heard a loud rumble and then my set of crutches on side of bed rattled against each other for a few seconds. We are on St. Lawrence River so I checked for any ships or helicopters but there was none! Found out 2 hrs later that there was an earthquake at the same time! Was definitely the quake.
