Anniversary mini penguins
In celebration of our one-year engagement anniversary (if I were going to make excuses for celebrating a one-year engagement anniversary, I'd do it here), we went to see the mini penguins. At dusk, you sit on this dock and watch the mini penguins scurry out of the water into the rocks. No flash photography allowed OR ELSE. White flashes increase the heart rate of the penguins which indicates that it stresses them out. Live and let live. So the mini penguin monitors carry around red flashlights (mini penguins don't perceive red light) to shine on the little buggers so you can take pictures.

Australia has penguin monitors?????? (Happy Anniversary, BTW.)
ReplyDeleteI'm not exactly sure what they were. What I do know is that they wore reflective neon yellow ponchos, carried red flashlights, and laid down the penguin-watching rules hardcore. So.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you :)
