Hummingbird Moth feeding

I captured this shot of a Hummingbird moth in the middle of the day. I thought that moths mainly flew at night but I guess not. This was very difficult to photograph since the moth moves very fast from flower to flower, like a hummingbird. It even sounds like a hummingbird flying. This is the only one that I have ever seen and I was lucky enough to get a decent photo of it. What do you think?
