This symbolic relationship is mutalism. The water buffalo provides bugs for the bird to eat and the water buffalo receives a bug cleaning service from the bugs on its body.
The relationship between the Flicker bird and the cactus is an example of symbiosis in the desert. The bird makes it's nest in the dead crevices of the cactus and does not harm it.
A bird nesting in a tree is an example what type of symbiosis
The type of symbiotic relationship that is represented by the Bot Fly and the oropendula is a behavioral and social symbiosis.
A buffalo is a large bovine animal, typically found in Africa and Asia, known for its strength and herd behavior. The bird that often picks insects off buffalo is called an oxpecker. These birds have a mutualistic relationship with buffalo, as they feed on ticks and other parasites while providing the buffalo with pest control.
The symbiotic relationship that they have is called commensalism. It is a type of relationship wherein one organism benefits from other with the latter not affected by it.
Buffalo Bird Woman was born in 1839.
Buffalo Bird Woman died in 1932.
They have a 'symbiotic' relationship. The egret cleans the buffalo skin of flies and parasites, and the buffalo gives the egret 'protection' from any animal that would otherwise eat the bird !
the oxpecker is a bird that rides on the buffalos back, and eats the flies and other insects off its back. its very nice of the little birdy. :)
A Mutualistic relationship between organisms is a relationship by which both organisms benefit from the other. An example of this would be the hippopotamus and the Oxpecker (bird). The birds sit on the hippo's back, getting free food by eating parasites that bother the hippo, while the birds are protected by the hippopotamus. - Dabigb such relationship is called symbiosis. Symbiotic Symbiosis/mutualism. mutualism
I don't know if there is a thing called a "tick bird" or not, but the bird that rides on a rhino, and eats parasites off of it's hide, is a part of a symbiotic relationship for sure: The bird gets food. The rhino loses annoying parasites. Both animals are in symbiosis. (mutually benefiting) The bird eats the ticks off the rhino's back and warns the rhino of any danger (mutualism). The bird also eats the blood from sores on the rhino's skin and it prevents them from healing (parasitism).
When a bird shelters in a tree, it is a form of commensalism. This is where the bird benefits but the tree is unaffected.
