    1. William, yes they can… at times. We have witnessed a male Anna’s HB feeding at the same time as a male Rufous HB! Looked like they were pals! Posted 2 years ago

  6. Which Olympus lens were you using? Tack sharp! Posted 2 years ago
    1. Thanks! It’s the Olympus 100-400mm f5.0-6.3. Their Pro long zoom lenses are too heavy (and too pricey) for me. Have to say I really enjoy this lens! Gary Posted 2 years ago
