The New Penguin Beach
I said in an earlier post that one exhibit was very crowded and that was the new Penguin Beach.
I chatted to a keeper for some time and she said that at the moment they have 67 penguins of four species on the beach. they are expecting this number to grow to about 200, mainly by breeding more in the centre of London.







But penguins are not beach creatures …

They are. Go to Boulder just south of Cape Town and they have taken over most of the beach. They are now encroaching on the town and nesting in back gardens and garages. Some of the penguins in London are the same type as those in South Africa.
