Can anyone identify this moth
I was outside covering my tomato plants this afternoon and found this fellow flying around my petunias. It's huge - almost as large as a hummingbird. It hovers and has a very long tongue to sip nectar. Does anyone know what kind of moth it is?

There are certain pursuits which, if not wholly poetic and true, do at least suggest a nobler and finer relation to nature than we know. The keeping of bees, for instance. ~ Henry David Thoreau

Thanks for the information.
I just looked up White Lined Sphinx and found it's the moth form of our famous "tomato horn worms" Too bad, now I'll have to stand guard over the tomatoes.
Thanks again for the help,
Gloria
