Nice capture and composition! Poor little guy lost part of his wing, most
likely to a predator.
From the image, and your description of its flight, it sounds like it could
b e one of the smaller skippers:

We have tiny, hyperactive skippers around here, but usually in summer.

I was shooting birds yesterday with the K3, DA 150-450 and DA 1.4X
converter when this little guy landed on a nearby evergreen shoot. He’s no
bigger than a fingernail. Don’t have time to try to look him up right now
but perhaps someone here recognizes him. About 945mm FOV at f8.
