Super difficult to photograph without a feeder. Nice backlit wings!

Yeah, they were flying everywhere so fast, it even went within inches of my head. I felt the wind from it. They have a nest in that tree, so far this is my best shot of them, unfortunately it doesn't capture its colors very well.

The backlit wings are my favorite part. Its the only reason I kept the photo.

I've found Cornell Lab's Merlin ID is good for ID'ing birds in the UK - perhaps where you are it would allow you to do better than "Bird" if that's not just being ironic :)

Its a hummingbird, more than likely a Annna's hummingbird but I don't know how to tell hummingbird apart from each other.
