No prizes for guessing how they got their name.

Some environmental shots included.

Thanks, Jacov, they are indeed cute, and a lot of fun to watch.  Because they cannot fly, it is much easier to watch them as they waddle around and interact together.

Very nice series, Anthony.  #2 Struck me as a striking resemblance with a ski-resort.   ;)

Thank you, John.

I know what you mean about the ski resort look.  And sometimes the penguins toboggan down on their fronts!

Somehow missed this one -
Anthony - these images couldn't be better if you tried. They are really super and nicely executed. 
The penguin is very beautiful - I have never seen these before.
