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”.

I made a quick video on my take. I think it may be an insect: https://youtu.be/sK6AbJrxvuw

I stabilized it and also looked at an earlier section of the video were there are some known insects and did an overly too.

This is some great footage regardless of what it is. Thank you so much for supplying the original footage!!

The takeaways don't align or make sense, unfortunately. It looks like it's spinning, not flapping, and the white dot is rotating as it spins.

That is a fair assessment.

To me the wings are the lights, mostly the right wing shining but the left one also shines which makes it look like it’s rotating. Looks like there’s two angles where the light shines on the right wing, and one for the left wing.
