Tuxedo Island at The San Francisco Zoo



Both the photo and two videos were taken at the San Francisco Zoo. I absolutely love penguins and if I could, would have one as a pet. They are so cute and animated as you will see here in the videos. They have their own little island at the zoo which is efficiently maintained and cleaned on a daily basis. They are one of the main attractions at the zoo especially during their feeding time which I believe is around 2:30 pm. I could spend hours just sitting their and watching them.



Watching their water antics is always a treat. They many times have races and are very competitive. Other times they just lose the day playing around.



We were treated to a short acappella song by one of our tuxedo friends. They are a very playful bunch.

Enjoy!

That is a funny name, tuxedo island. I wouldn't have appreciated the name until I saw what lived in them. :)

You know...I have actually-in my lifetime-contemplated on stealing one of these tuxedo-clad precious things from the zoo! Do you think that's possible, Joanne? Have you tried to yourself? :)
Beautiful picture, and a fun video to watch, Jo!
