New England Vacation #11


Call me cruel, but I couldn't help but laugh at this bald headed, bare-butted penguin at the Boston Aquarium. He looks so happy to be with his friend, and his friend didn't seem to mind the pink skin showing through, so I did feel bad laughing at this oddity. But you can't tell me it didn't make you smile. Well, perhaps you can. You could be more compassionate than I. At any rate, here it is: A penguin at the Boston Aquarium. It was feeding time when we were there, and the girls were in the tank in their drysuits and feeding charts, handing the birds their daily allotment of fish, which were subsequently gulped down in less than a second.

"The odd one NOT out." Very cute picture.

I love the penguins at the NEA but the giant tank with the sharks swimming around with their normal prey is amazing.
