Two birds feeding at the same time is pretty typical for the species in my area.
The males, which control prime feeding locations like feeders, will definitely share with potential female mates. And the females, while territorial to some degree, are much more focused on feeding than they are fighting.
Additionally, early in the morning and late the in the day, pretty much all individuals are much more desperate to fill their stomachs and less apt to fight. During these times, the dominant males often end up losing control over the situation and seemingly give in to feeding side by side.
