In Arizona these colorful animals have been observed from April through November. The later sightings have been made on warm, sunny days. Many sightings have been in the afternoon. However, surface activity has ranged from early morning through the evening, depending on weather conditions. Animals are frequently seen in June, July, or August, often after a rain shower.
