Hummingbird outside window

There’s a hummingbird that keeps flying (feels more like teleporting) outside my window and for the last couple days, every time I hear that rapid-fire wingbeat I scramble to get my camera, sort of start sweating, and usually miss the photo. At this point I'm convinced it’s a Pavlovian response. Happy to report that this morning I was able to get some shareable images but can't figure out which species it is (maybe Allen or Rufous?). Thanks for any help, cheers!

Sparrow's nest in the old orchid plant [Sony A6700 | Tamron 28-200]

The orchid has been struggling for two years. I love the thought that something doesn't have to be thriving to be needed.
