Best is you make too separate posts/spottings and add the name to each spot. You might have to delete one and upload it again. With the ID of the second one (in the trees not in the nest) I am not sure.

I looked at the pics, im pretty sure is that one.So i should leave that name and erase the common name of Mellsisuga helenae?

I think there might be 2 different species. Could that be? If yes, #1 might be Amazilia tzacatl, Rufous-tailed Hummingbird.
