Fork-tailed Drongo and Plains Zebra

Fork-tailed Drongo and Plains Zebra. 20″ x 16″. Acrylic on Pine. 2018.

During my two weeks in Gondwana, the Plains Zebra were a daily sighting. Always grazing close by, and I became accustomed to seeing them. Typically you see Red-Billed Oxpeckers on ungulates like this, but none have taken up residence in Gondwana, so we usually saw the Fork-tailed Drongo perched on the backs of various animals.
