Hummingbird Photos and a Question

.

.
Here are a couple of quick shots today of a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird. So far I've see four at one time (3 male, 1 female) but I'm not sure how many I actually am getting to the feeder. Also, I have one male whose head area is so dark green that it looks black to the naked eye, even in the sun.  Even with binoculars, it looks black with a green hue, much darker than the other males on the feeder. Any thoughts as to why?
