Looking at some King Penguins.
Everyday at 2:15 at the Edinburgh Zoo there is a penguin parade. The parade is voluntary. When we heard it was voluntary, we were like, come on, really. But when the keepers went up to the gate, 7 eager penguins ran up. More looked interested but didn't get there in time.
Three King Penguins in the parade. Isn't it just the cutest thing ever?.
Parading Gentoo Penguins.
Waddle waddle.
Ooooh- they are just so cute!
This penguin was loving the attention.
The keepers paraded too in order to keep the penguins in line.
Some rockhopper penguins. They have long eyebrows.
A baby giraffe.
A baby rhino with its mum.
Baby meercats. They are very feisty.
A sleepy snowy owl.
A tiny scop owl.
A syberian lynx. Note the lovely ear tufts.
What a nice kitty!
