Ipomoea cairica
Hi Ashish Nimkar , thank you so much for the right ID. With all these discussions I got confused with the 2 species. Sorry about that. In my comment I meant I.cairica but I wrote it wrong. I have changed it. I will confirm the species as cairica. Thank you.
Thank you so much Patricia and Jellisf or helping me ID this spotting. You are both really talented and have got unbelievable knowledge on plants. I really admire you both.
And about this spotting, I found this morning glory in a woodland nearby were we went trekking. I don't know much about where it came from but based on the location and as Jellis said the 'palmate leaves' I think it is Ipomea cairicia.
It's the only one that has that kind of palmate leaf that I see.

yes, you're right, I thought that ipomoea indica, was purple, but it seems that can be pink
sooooorrry I say nonsense!

Not sure the leaves are correct on that. The OP spot you can't really see it because it is wrap around another plant. Plus we would have to ask if the plant is native or planted. If you look at my comment with the link it says the Ipomoea Indica is the most common species in the area.
I know my suggestion is from the mediterranean area, but I think your spotting is more similar to Convolvulus than Ipomoea
