Hawaii has a population of Monarch butterflies: http://www.explorebiodiversity.com/Hawaii/BiodiversityForgotten/Wildlife/Inverts/Insects/Monarchs.htm
Since the nearest land to Hawaii is Point Arena, near San Francisco, about 2,286 miles away, Hawaiian Monarchs do not migrate. I love to watch them visiting nectar plants in the garden of the condo complex in which we stay on Maui. I am still hoping to get back there this winter.
