Cute little critter, isn't he? He's at the Toledo Zoo in Ohio.

Thanks for the comments, Friends.

Spheniscus magellanicus, likes to hang out in Argentina, Chile and the Falkland Islands. Thank gawd for Wikipedia, lol. Looks like the little fellow is looking towards his former homeland.

He looks rather sad Jimbob. Very sharp focus on the bird. Nice colours too.

---Cute little critter, isn't he?---

Suppose it's your friend, Jimbob.

Like to agree with Raj that it's looking rather sad. It's possible that it became aware that it isn't capable to fly, lol. Love this post.
Regards, Cornelius.

I think he is sad because he is suffering from the Napoleon Complex, JimboB. It is natural for those short in stature.
An excellent capture and I also like the framing.

With winter coming I'm sure he's wishing to go back to Argentina! Excellent shot - the muted colors all play well together.

This is such a good capture of him, with good color, and details. Perfectly presented in my opinion as well.

Great job on this photograph. Thanks Tick you answered question of a month ago. I posted a photo of these little fellas but did not know what kind of penguin it was. Thanks for sharing and stuff.

Jimbob - With that schnoz, is this Jamie Farr's relative? He's so homely, he;s cute. Good capture! Thad

He looks kinda lonely sitting there all by himself!He's very cute though! Great clarity and composition. Love the color of the rocks behind him.

Kind of looks like a soldier that has stood at attention too long. Nice shoot. I have to get out and check the Toledo Zoo out.
