Magellanic Penguin

Magellanic penguin pen and wash At the volunteer thank you event for the oil spill the folks were there from SeaWorld. They brought a penguin, three conures, and two lizards with them for some reason. The penguin was hatched at SeaWorld and was totally used to people, so I took advantage.

It was wonderful seeing Ron and Joe and Lisa. And many others, some of whom I’d last seen in Tyvek and goggles.

  1. I really wanted to shake hands (flippers?) with that penguin. I think Lisa picked up on the reason she (the penguin, I mean) was there: that’s the species they’re rescuing from an oil spill this week in Argentina.

    The conures and hey! TWO lizards? How’d I miss one?

    Anyway, I guess they were there for flash and pettability. The beardie liked being stroked under his chin, I found.

    Good to see you there!
