Hi to all.
My two bob's worth on this one.
I have seen adjacent nests of these species on a couple of occasions and
occupation of the same vicinity many times. I have never seen a GB
harassing a SH but have usualy thought that the SH tended to follow the
GB rather than the reverse. I have wondered why without thinking of a
plausible reason.
