Rhinoceros with Oxpeckers

In the middle of the tall grass, an imposing rhinoceros moves calmly through its habitat. On its back, three oxpeckers have taken their place. These small birds live in close cooperation with large mammals and feed on insects and parasites found on their skin. The contrast between the rhinoceros's immense strength and the vulnerable birds makes this a remarkable image. A beautiful example of how animals in the African wild depend on one another.
