Looking for all the world like there should be a safety pin stuck through its ear and Doc Martins on its feet.

You might have seen it, but the Australian Antarctic Division has a page with unusual penguins: http://www.aad.gov.au/default.asp?casid=1693 I found this page mentioned in the July 2008 issue of the Polar Times, which featured a melanistic Chinstrap Penguin on the cover and an albino African Penguin (in a zoo) on the back cover (I have scans here: http://brdpics.blogspot.com/2008/07/black-and-white-penguins.html). I'd be tickled to death just to see a penguin of any stripe some day outside of captivity!! Your photos are much better quality than most there- keep up the great work! Very cool!

I'm not sure where - but it could've been via Clare in Arctic Bay. In any event - I love your photography, can't get enough of penguins... I am so happy I came across your blog!
