And can I make one legend that includes the plots from both
> axes?
Save a list of lines and a list of labels and then call
ax.legend(lines, labels)
lines and labels can be from different axes; eg,
lines =
lines.extend( ax1.plot(something))
lines.extend( ax2.plot(something_else))
See also the figure legend capability in
http://matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlib.figure.html
