Re: African Penguin Closeup
Chuck, are they big ones? The ones we have in Oz are the fairy ones, very small really...If these are the big ones, I only see them in the zoos. Very strange shot but nevertheless a very good one...excuse me for comparing this one to the ostrich but I did like the beauty of that ostrich you showed us very, very much...

Re: African Penguin Closeup
Izzie and John, thanks for the comments. I agree that this is a a very strange shot. I posted it because of the textures of the bill and the feathers. It doesn't do much to help one understand what a penguin looks like. But as usual, I was having fun.
