Morning cleaning - (Bubulcus ibis) - View larger

I liked the expression of the ox that does seems annoyed rather he

seems to wait peacefully handing his head for the cleaning to remove

pesky insects from the Cattle Egret

This is such a brilliant shot. The colours, the composition and detail are great. The ox looks so relaxed and welcoming of this grooming. It goes to my favouirites folder. full points for this. Well done my friend. Regards, Lawrence

I love the expressions on their faces, and--as with your other images--the colors are wonderful. This cropping works well, but I think it would also work with a tighter crop that features just the two main characters here--although I like the expression on the background cow, the head distracts me a bit from the bird and the foreground ox. But it's a wonderful photo in any case!

Wonderful! Beautiful scene and colors. Best regards, Wobby

Love the scene and composition. Nature at it's best with all relaxed and at peace. Very good (6) and very well presented. Best regards Ken.

Isn't symbiosis great!! Both are happy because they both win!

Terrific shot!

Day at the Spa!  Great shot!

After hot he looks this ox has a big pleasure for this cleaning and makes he dream for sure.Splendid colors and composition of this moment caught.

Oddio, quanto è dolce questa immagine!

Great presentation! Nature gives us gifts at all times just look for them! Warm regards my friend. Jorge.

Wonderful image!

this is another amazing shot !! It truly is so beautiful. Your skills shine here Giangiorgio !

Lovely shot Giangiorgio! Would a close up of just the egret and the ox have been possible? Might have been very intersting, but perhaps they were too far away for that detail? It's great anyway. Well done. Best - Peter.

Thanks a lot P.Staadecker for your visit and appreciate comment and suggestion

It is amazing how two such dissimilar creature can work together, Giangiorgio. A really great example of what working together means. Best regards, Paul.

Paul and Dana thanks a loto for your very nice appreciated comment, ciao Giangiorgio
