This is so amusing and wonderful. It is nice that you got all three and the two parents flanking the young one.

Beautiful with them looking in the same direction!

@grammyn It is a semi circle made of large bricks to form a pool Katy. The lawn where all the sacred ibis were, is what they are facing now.

I was there two days ago and the pool does not exist due to the rain they had. There were still some standing on the wall, but I could not see their feet ;-)

[katy]

@ludwigsdiana how nice to give them a nice place to stand. That sounds like it was a lot of rain if it is underwater now

[Rick]

Great shot.

[Diana]

@grammyn Yes Cape Town did get quite a bit over a few days. We here in the countryside got almost nothing, unfortunately :-(

[Diana]

@rickster549 Thanks Rick :-)
