A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
Buphagus erythrorhynchus and Buphagus africanus
Look on the backs of the nearest left side bullocks, 3 red-billed Oxpeckers are visible. The second picture shows a close-up. I was looking for a better picture and when I found one I resized a section of it and saw there was also a Yellow-billed Oxpecker, see third picture, the bird with the pale bill, dark throat and pale belly. The fourth pic is a close-up of this!
Backs of Buffalo
close-up pic later
I added this and a few others also. I also have a picture of Sparrows nesting inside an active Storks nest but not on Noah yet until I find it.
Malcolm, I've created a new mission for Symbiotic relationships & would appreciate it if you could add this spotting!

I have added some close-ups of the birds on the buffalo's backs, one was different so I zoomed in a lot and it turned out to be a Yellow-billed Oxpecker, so another bird for my life list. See fourth picture.
