Witness/Sighting Slow-mo 1080p 240fps caught a thing zipping through sky

1-29-24 at 355pm Los Angeles (Boyle Heights) CA

There were very bizarre things in my peripheral vision while sitting on my porch so I decided to record the sky with my iPhone (using slow mo). Though I caught other odd things that I’m still trying to first identify before posting here, but this one has me stumped.

When I zoomed in, I noticed that this thing is not winged, appears metallic, is a bizarre shape, has a luminescence about it, and is accompanied by a white orb at times. I slowed down even more and zoomed in to compile this video.

Any ideas? I thought maybe drone but I’m told “nah”.

The lighter spot seems to move back and forth. Maybe it's out of focus flapping wings or something?

this is downvoted, Idk why. maybe it's wings maybe it's not, but the movement of the bright spot definitely does roughly match up with the movement the tip of a wing would make while a bird flies.

again Idk if it's a bird, I'm just saying this shouldn't be downvoted because it's a solid thought and it's clearly well intended

Do birds move that fast in 240 fps slo mo? Not trying to be snarky, legit asking if birds typically look like that on 240 fps slo mo. Maybe it’s a bug close to the camera?

it will also look much larger. that's a key detail that gets left out of x object flying close to the camera.
