Love it Ken !!! Priceless expression That is one character !! Might consider cropping form the left a bit !!! Can also remove the green from right under the chin !!!
Hi Ken,
The expression is priceless and the Oxpecker is a bonus.
alfred's recommended crop will take it a bit off center which would help compositionally. Nicely done!
Vincent, this was taken in Kruger N P where you cannot select where to position yourself or often be lucky enough to see something not buried in grass or mopane, but I agree it is a great pity.
