Is my Australorp hen actually a rooster?

In early June, my neighbor and I took on 7 hens from a friend who was moving unexpectedly and could no longer keep them. I think they are around 4 months old now, but I'm not positive. 6 of our girls are Golden Comets, and we have one Australian Australorp named Medea who is supposed to be a hen as well. However Medea has been crowing, and getting louder everyday. We live in a downtown area, and she can now be heard from inside the house early in the morning :/
From the pictures I've seen online, I thought she was a hen, but I can't help but wonder, especially given her behavior at times. She sometimes gets quite irritated when I touch the other chickens. Her crowing doesn't quit sound like full on crowing, but it's loud still. So I'm hoping I can get your opinion on whether we have a secret rooster or a bossy alpha hen

The above image is one I took this morning. I'll try to get better pictures of her (or him) if that helps! I also have a video of her crowing somewhere on my phone.

Here's a video of Medea crowing. Don't mind the chicken wire. It was on the original run we were given and we are in the process of switching everything out for hardware cloth.

If its crowing, then its a roo. Kind of looks like pointy saddle feather too, kind of hard to tell though, since its all black and shiny. But I would bet that its a male.

I was a little suspicious of the first pictures. The second set are of a cockerel. Yep, it's a male.

Looks like a little cockerel. The pointy saddle feather are short still, but they are definitely there.

Yeah I actually just went out and took that second set of pictures, and it became a lot more obvious when Medea started fluffing up. She/he was not happy at all that I came in to the run, and that's the first time I've ever seen his feathers fluff up like that. He looked twice as big as he actually is, and like a totally different chicken!
