wait so the frame rate just freezes the wing or what

The wings are moving fast enough to be in roughly the same position on each frame, so it barely looks like they’re moving

Man how old is this video? Bet the bird isnt even alive anymore.

From 2017 if the date in the top left is correct. If a hummingbird survives to adulthood it can live for 8-12 years, so the bird might still be alive depending on it's age in the video.

Nah, that's just the lesser spotted hover bird.

Weirdly, they can't hover over water.
