Or Hummingbird moths. Ten PM my Dames Rocket plants are full of them. They sound like a swarm of hummingbirds in the dark. They are 5-6 inches across with inch thick bodies, they never touch down and have 6 inch tongues to collect nectar while hovering. And they are quite uncooperative subjects in the dark.
