Buffalo Buffalos Egret Egrets Look Outs Symbiosis With Other Animals Mixed Species

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a wild friendship! This print captures the perfect example of 'buddy-buffalos' in action at Bandhavgarh National Park, India. Meet WAT-9914, the adventurous Cattle Egret perched on top of a majestic water buffalo. These two unlikely pals have formed an extraordinary bond that showcases the beauty of symbiosis in nature. While most birds prefer to fly solo, this fearless egret has found its ultimate lookout spot on the back of its bovine companion. With feathers ruffled and wings spread wide, it seems like our feathered friend is taking charge as the official 'lookout bird' for their mixed-species gang! Resting peacefully amidst lush greenery, these animals create a stunning tableau against the backdrop of one of India's finest national parks. The buffalo appears completely at ease with its avian passenger, showcasing harmony between mammals and birds. This image by M. Watson reminds us that friendships can be found in even the most unexpected places. Whether you're soaring through skies or grazing on grasslands, true companionship knows no bounds – not even across different species! So next time you feel like spreading your wings or finding solace atop someone's shoulders (or horns), remember WAT-9914 and his trusty buffalo buddy who prove that sometimes all we need is a little support from our friends. . . even if they have hooves!
