Hummingbird Moths, Sphinx Moths or Hawk Mothsnight bug
We thought it may be a hummingbird hawk moth but tail is more like a hornet not a lobster.

Hi Darlene,
This is another species of Sphinx Moth or Hawk Moth, the Carolina Sphinx Moth, Manduca sexta. The caterpillars are often found on tomatoes and it is also called the Tobacco Sphinx.
