See how the hummingbird moth has the green on the head, the red on the wings and the spread tail? You will swear it's a humming bird if you see one. The credit for this photo goes to Trishoutofwater on her blog.

according to wikipedia, the moth I attached is Hemaris thysbe which is a bumblebee moth not a hummingbird moth. I am happy to correct myself. They are, as Kitt said, all in Sphingidae order.
