A cape buffalo and its ever present red billed oxpecker. The oxpeckers do eat some ticks but their presence is a bit more nefarious....they are also vampires and keep wounds open to drink blood from their host.

Thanks Eric. Did not know about this parasitic relationship. Only knew about the symbiotic interaction. Such is nature I guess. Nothing really comes for free.

Very nice Eric. It is showing those odd green and magenta patches that seem to be a Smugmug artifact.

Great image, Eric and a little background of that vampire oxpecker goes a long way for us that are not aware of that behavior!
