monarchs overwintering in Tucson

[Roger Kuhlman]

Does anyone know how unusual it is to find Monarchs in the late Fall Months or the early Spring Months in Tucson? Do Monarchs breed in the summer nearby Tucson in the high country of Mount Lemon and other surrounding mountain ranges? Roger Kuhlman

I have a report of some monarchs overwintering in Tucson.  Is anyone on the list seeing them also?  Can this be expected every year in Tucson or is this an unusually mild winter?
