Anyone know if this is a moth, butterfly, or bird? https://video.nostr.build/4e4182e3d8448074312f6e34e8e19d62811b543d8ef8f9a9d66a19f7bef59345.mp4

hard to ID but i would assume a species of hawkmoth

Looks like hummingbird

Looks like a humming bird. But seems too slow for that

It is. The camera's just not fast enough to catch the wings.

Nice!

I thought so too. Never saw a hummer where I could capture the wing shape.

Bird, I saw a beak.

Might be a hummingbird moth. I have seen one once before.

That’s what it is!

They are freakishly huge lol

That’s a hummingbird but the refresh rate on the camera is making the wings seem like they are moving slowly. You get the same effect when you try to video record a helicopter taking off. It ends up looking like it’s just levitating.

My vote is hummingbird.

Looks like a hummingbird

Moth. It has antennae

Isn’t it a hummingbird? Bad camera angle.

It wasn’t moving hummingbird fast, but did have a hummingbird beak, maybe not as long. I was underneath and couldn’t get any better angle.
