Birds on Animals

I know that the birds eat parasites off of the other animals, but I've always wondered if the other animals just tolerate it, or if they actually like it.

It's certainly beneficial to the other animals to have the birds around -- whether they actively "like" it would be tough to answer though.

I guess what I mean is do they seem to attempt to shoo them off with their tails or by moving like they might with bugs, or do they stand still and seem to let it happen. I know its hard to really evaluate their "emotions", I just thought it might be obvious one way or another.
