I live in western Franklin County. In my back yard I have a butterfly bush that is always loaded with the hummingbird moths this time of year. Right now there are at least 3 out there. They are really a beautiful "bug." I enjoy watching them almost as much as my ruby-throated hummingbirds at my sugar-water feeder, which I have placed right next to the butterfuly bush.
