penguins!

Kylie's big birthday present was the Penguin Encounter at the Mystic Aquarium down in Connecticut. It's a small aquarium, but they try to concentrate on doing a few things well. They have a colony of 24 African penguins in an outdoor enclosure, and they use some of them for these "contact" programs.

This individual is a female (as shown by the pink bead on her armband) with the imaginative name of Yellow-Blue.
