Stork family home

Volubilis was settled and prospered under the Mauritanian kings, from the third century B.C. to 40 A.D., after which it was annexed by the Romans.

A wider view of the place where the stork family was nesting.

Fabulous ruins - one can imagine the early inhabitants taking care of business here. Nice to see the stork making himself (probably) at home :) V
