Hi All, Again thanks for viewing, your comments really make this site, be they good or not so good.The Galleries out there are top class....Jack. Now as they say.For some thing quite different. I think more fun but still AFRICAN WILDLIFE.
The Oxpecker Birds. Two species, The Red-billed and The Yellow-billed. They are considered to be semi-parasitic.They forage in small flocks on large mammals eating ticks, fleas and flies but also consuming wound tissue, blood and secretions. Not a nice way of having your dinner.......Jack

Thanks for that write up ..... I was in the middle of my lunch !!!!!
Not any more
Only kidding
This wonderful beast looks like he has a set of false teeth
Great shot
Another awesome capture on the Tour of Africa. Great write-up and the little bird, despite he has to eat unsusula food, is really beautiful! Spor on capture.
Dave (off to have lunch now 
Well, this is a really great capture Jack but the explanation must be read not before the lunch
I just wanted to appreciate the second portrait (oxpecker) and after reading your text i changed my mind, these oxpeckers must be vampires man!
However, the picture is excellent and the introduction well composed!

I think this is wonderful. Not only do you have a close detailed and well exposed image of the beast, but a wonderful expression, composition and dof. There is also a beautifully natural symmetry with the horns and ears. I have to give it my UA.
I like this portrait of an unusual model.
The buffalo seems to enjoy the situation and is have a lovely smile.
Great photo!
