They waddled into my book.

Such an awkward elegance.

These are African penguins (formerly known as Jackass Penguins). I referenced from photographs that my friend took last time we went to see them. They live in a little colony at Boulders Beach, Simon's Town (Just outside of Cape Town). A heat wave on Saturday killed 65 penguin chicks in one day.

Here is a photo of one section of the beach from an unknown source: [link]

Very nice penguins! And nice to see you continuing to expand your repetoire! The Penguin in the background is probably my favourite. The penguin in the forground is a little flat, but admittedly it is kidna hard to add depth to a black animal.
