Oxpecker and Zebra, South Africa

Photograph by Magnus J. K. Elmgren , My Shot

I took this picture on a gray and rainy day in Kruger National Park, South Africa , in 2008. I was taking pictures of the oxpecker sitting on the zebra , but the oxpecker flew down on the ground instead, making it a better picture.
