DAY 76: SCRATCH WHERE YOU ITCH



Oxpeckers and starlings have, like all of God's masterpieces, been designed in 
a very special way.  They are the cleaners in nature, and feed on the parasites that live and irritate the hell out of the hides of wild animals.  In this picture you can see that even though he may look like he is under attack, the impala is quite welcoming of his little helpers - small wonder.....how would YOU like to have a whole lot of itches that you can't scratch?

Unlike a lot of human relationships (!) this scenario is a two way street - the animals get rid of bothersome parasites, and the birds get fed.  

If you would like some more info about God's meticulous design in nature, keep reading my blog......and read the book of Job!
