Symbiosis?

I came across this scene only a few hundred yards from home this afternoon. In a field with 4/5 horses/ponies and about the same number of Jackdaws, one of the Jackdaws was on the back of the Shetland(?) Pony pulling hair from the pony’s back, presumably to be used for nesting. The pony wasn’t bothered at all by the bird “grooming” it.
