Morocco: The Storks and Cats of Chellah (Rabat)

As I said in the previous post, I expected to see cats in Morocco. Well, everywhere to be exact! But storks? I haven't even seen them in person before this day and so seeing so many nesting in Chellah was such a treat.

Is that an egg precariously hanging on the side of the nest?

The resident cats had made the visit to Chellah even more memorable. Although these cats are not friendly to strangers.

  3. Your Chellah storks are prettier than Florida wood storks -- I'm envious ;>). But their nests look very much like ours -- big and messy! That IS an egg, wow! That's an amazing camera catch.

    And you have amazing kitty karma -- you sure do find them everywhere you go!

  9. Interesting combination of feathers and fur along your journey. With birds bigger than the lean cats, a dangling egg could be their best and only snack.
