This little fellow seemed a bit nervous at having his picture taken, none the less I managed to get a few between his flying away and coming back to the bush.
Hello! May I?
I'm back!
Showing my colors!
Soon time to go!

I remember the Monarch of my childhood being big and
orange-ish with a different shape. Are these the same?

You know, you're right. I don't know what species that visited me, but it certainly doesn't look like that. Still a beautiful ''bug'' though. I got a short glimpse of another yesterday, black with some vivid colors painted on the black.
Doing a quick wiki search, this guy looks like an Appalachain Tiger Swallow Tail, but there's no ''swallow tail'' on him. In short, I have no idea what he is other than an attractive butterfly. 
Nothing really matches him in wiki.

Yeah, they're all kind of ''monarchs'' in a way, put here to look as they do for our enjoyment!
