Bumble bee moth or Clearwing hummingbird moth-both names are commonly used. When I first spotted this moth in our prairie I did think I was looking at an oversized Bumble Bee-for it was only about 25% larger than some of the Bumbles we had seen. We had not seen one for a few years . They are very challenging to photograph.
