Animal Wednesday: penguins today and a tropical birdie


I always think of penguins as being bigger, like five feet tall. Especially Emperor penguins like the ones in the documentary, "march of the penguins." 
At least this exhibit wasn't bad. The penguins seemed happy and well loved. They all have colored arm bands so the viewers can read about who's who.


This guy looks like he has a friend stuck on his back, hence the commentary!


Hmmm, should I go for a dip?


This is the old timer. He stole my heart.


hey, who's behind me?
They're sure cute little things! 


This beauty was in the tropical enclosure. It was hot and humid in there. All us middle-aged women couldn't take the heat!!!
This bird kept flying directly above me and I just kept clicking away. At least I got this one shot where he isn't just a blur!
Does anyone know what he is? He's really the only thing I spotted in there.
Next week will be elephants and the giraffe :)

Happy Animal Wednesday!
