I think the more you have, the less they fight as Christine stated before (I think). I'm noticing mine are still fighting but it isn't as vicious as before. They are starting to become more tolerant to each other. I have 3 feeders - 1 in front, 1 in back & 1 on the side & they used to stake out "their" feeder & boy & howdy if anyone else came within viewing distance of "their" feeder! But now that is changing. Around back I see a female during the day but come late afternoon a male is there. And I have seen a female sipping & another female comes along & sips from the salvia that is mere feet from the feeder & there are no fights.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
