Unfortunately the images do not have enough detail to decide between Hylaeinae and Lasioglossum or Leioproctus. Males in the last two groups can have facial hair that could be mistaken for integumental colour. If the wing venation were sufficiently clear it could separate hylaeines from the others.

Thanks @michael.batley
Sadly the wind was a bit stronger on this day and getting clear photos was very difficult! Appreciate your efforts.
