You never know what you might find in a bison’s fur. In this case, a male and female cowbird — the female on the left, male on the right. I found it amusing that they always seemed to be looking in the same direction at the same time. As for the bison, he was just happy to be going about his business of eating grass, oblivious to the new tenants on his back. This is another one from the Badlands trip. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/500th of a second
Hi, Another interesting subject, cowbirds, always like looking at your photography. Where I live (and work for now) we have no large animals, only buffaloes…Goodluck, John
