Those were here when I moved here.... although they are particularly vibrant this year....& I'm pretty sure they're NOT the variety you're thinking of....😅

So, a fairly clear night was forecast for Saturday when I checked on the Friday, got my plans sorted, was going to do a Milky Way time lapse at Three Cliffs Bay, spent lots of time planning the right times and spot, tides etc, then the b'stards changed the forecast, to clouding over by 11pm, dark night wasn't starting until 11:33, damn, So I decided to set up my scope in the garden instead, just in case there was some clearings between the clouds, set up all my gear and stayed up til 4:20am, it never did cloud over, not even when I got up again at 6:30am, anyway, I managed to capture this:

North American Nebula - NGC 7000 only about 2,000 light years away, too dim to see with the naked eye but visually about 6 x the size of the Moon

Fujifilm X-H2, Tamron 70-300mm f/5.6 at 300mm, dew heater on, 105 frames no guiding so only 72 x 2 min frames usable, 20 darks, 20 flats and 20 bias frames to calibrate, post processed in Siril and Affinity Photo.

Hope you like it, I'm knackered but ain't going to bed and wasting any of the Bank Holiday, bugger that.
