I live in Culver City and have seen them too. They are painted lady butterflies, not monarchs, though the coloring is very similar.

thanks for the link.

One can still see monarch butterflies at Natural Bridges state park Monarch Grove.  Not many...perhaps 8,000 rather than the millions that used to show up.  But they're still there from mid-October to mid-January.
