had one of these on my butterfly bush two years in a row in Pa. Beautiful to watch, I'd never seen one before.you are truly right, it is from the moth family. I looked it up online through google and it came up with pics and info.

It's called a Hummingbird Clearwing Moth (Hemaris thysbe). Their a diurnal moth (day active) and have a life cycle just like a butterfly. Their larva (caterpillar) feeds on honeysuckle foliage so if you plant coral honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens) you'll get more of them. It also attracts hummingbirds

You ARE mistaken, that is actually a moth. They seem to be flocking to new areas due to climate change. There's a website dedicated to marking down the sightings of these critters, maybe you should go submit this one :). Very good job at catching it on film, too!

wow! My parents have had one of those things in their back yard last year. If I am not mistaken that is the smallest bird in the world. Great find!
