"...are Hummingbirds nocturnal with blue phosphoresence under their wings?"

No, but some specis of hawk moths do the same job at night that humming birds do during the daytime. Sometimes they can be found on the same flowers of the same plant.

Do an image search for "hawk moth" or "Sphingidae" and see what come up.
