What's that omn the dam wall ... Thx Marge R!

What's that on the dam wall?  Look closely.    It's one of those things you have to see to believe . . ..  
    
    
 
  
This is the Digadel Cingino dam in Italy.  Can you see the little dots on the wall?


  
You'll never guess what they are (the correct answer is not “dam spots”). 
    
    
    
 
    
You've got to be kidding! 
    
    
 
    
    
 
    
    
 
    
They are European Ibex and they like to eat the moss and lichen growing on the wall.  
They also are licking the salt off the stone.  Isn't it incredible that they can stand at that angle?  
Just when you think you've seen everything!
