Unfortunately photography is not allowed at the Little Penguins’ parade on Phillip Island. We did get to see their cousins, the Emperor and Gentoo penguins, at the Melbourne Aquarium. This Emperor is ready for his close-up. You can tell he’s an Emperor because his tux is haute couture.
My sister and I had a favorite penguin at the Central Park Zoo in New York. At feeding time the penguins would queue up for their meals, and he would get his fish, eat it, then go back to the end of the line for another fish. The person in charge would push him away, but he simply lined up again. A penguin with an existential bent.
