Different birds in this series. Photo 4 with the mostly dark bill must be a young bird. The rest of the photos look like an adult male with the dark corners to the tail.

2018-04-12    Teotitlan del Valle (pueblo - oax), Mexico

Not so easy to see characteristics here, but still. The red bill, the grayish front and the broad tail say it a species of this genus, very much like Broad-billed Hummingbird, except that both sexes are overall grayish and dusty green like the female Broad-billed. Endemic centered in and around Oaxaca.
