Hummingbird Moths, Sphinx Moths or Hawk Moths

Hummingbird Moth — Hanover, MD
This moth was visiting my garden yesterday and I am trying to confirm what kind it is. I really like your website, and I think that my moth is in the clearwing family, but didn’t see any pictures that looked like mine. The wings never stopped moving, and he flitted around just like a hummingbird.
Thanks, Susan Schmaltz
